    Thanksgiving Recipes with Indian Flavors

    From traditional foods to modern take on the classic, here is a collection of my family's favorite Thanksgiving Recipes.

    Here you will find classic sweet potato casserole studded with pecans and a quick and easy Instant Pot Cranberry Sauce for the perfect side dishes that are perfect make-ahead recipes. My modern take on the "Roasted Turkey/Chicken", with a spicy Tandoori Marinade with the Instant Pot Cooking method that locks in all of the incredible flavors for fall of the bone tender and juicy meat.

    I have 2 versions of the jalapeรฑo cheddar cornbread - Instant Pot version for a perfectly moist cornbread perfect for a small family gathering or bake it for a golden top cheddar cornbread.

    My vegetarian-friendly Thanksgiving feast has a few main dishes including my ย The show stopper Whole Tandoori Cauliflower and the stunningย Garlicky Roasted Rainbow Carrots and Pearl Onions.

    To keep up with the beautiful feast theme, the Mango Cheesecake and the Ricotta Rose Cheesecake are both perfect make-ahead, crowd-pleaser desserts.

    And let's not forget the drinks that can be enjoyed throughout the leisurely evening ย - the warm apple cider that fills your home with the holiday aromas and the fresh homemade pomegranate juice with the season's best Pomegranates.
