40 Thanksgiving Potluck Recipes Guaranteed To Be The Most Popular At The Party

We can all agree, potlucks are the BEST, especially on Thanksgiving. Why? Because someone else is hosting, you don't have to be on turkey duty, and can instead focus on all the fun Thanksgiving side dishes, Thanksgiving appetizers, or Thanksgiving desserts that will get you invited back for holidays to come. Whether you're bringing the cranberry stuffing or the mashed potato casserole, these easy big-batch recipes are perfect for feeding a crowd at a potluck. We're pretty sure you'll get major points if you bring some Thanksgiving jungle juice. 😉

Before you dig in on all those traditional Thanksgiving foods (we're looking at you, green bean casserole and mashed potatoes), greet your guests with a glass of harvest punch and plenty of bite-sized appetizers. We're pretty partial to our baked feta bites, turkey cheese ball, and this too-cute crudité turkey.

Going to a potluck-style Thanksgiving also automatically means that the dessert table is going to be stacked. If you still have room, you'll want to make a couple trips for our top favorite Thanksgiving desserts that go beyond pie, Thanksgiving cookies, and Thanksgiving cakes. Our recipes for mini pumpkin pies, lemon cranberry cheesecake bars, and our pumpkin pie bars are not only delicious, but they're easy to make for a big group too!

On a time crunch (or have a bigger crowd than you anticipated)? Check out our favorite last minute Thanksgiving appetizers, Thanksgiving punch recipes, and our all-time favorite no-bake holiday desserts. And if you're serving a smaller group, we've got tons of ideas on how to make Thanksgiving dinner for two.
