Home Chef’s Thanksgiving option is a build-your-own box, with a choice of sides and dessert. This one is a great choice for the person that wants the normalcy of cooking a full Thanksgiving spread without the crowded grocery store. This is a build-your-own box, in which every item from the turkey to the sides can be curated according to your preferences. The star of the meal is the turkey breast roast, which serves eight to 10 guests and takes about two hours to heat after thawed. FIND THAT HERE.
Another fan of the customizable menu, Blue Apron released both a Thanksgiving Meal Prep Feast and the option to mix and match. Both can serve up to eight guests, so the real question is if they prefer a traditional turkey or a pork roast dinner. The full turkey meal includes the bird, pimento cheese mashed potatoes, roasted carrots in ginger syrup, mushroom braised collard greens, cheesy cornbread, sage gravy and cranberry sauce and a peanut-glazed apple and persimmon crumble for dessert. The mix-and-match menu features a spiced pork roast instead of the turkey and comes with options to include any or all of the sides and dessert above.
Gobble is offering a Thanksgiving box this year and, surprise, a gobbler is one of the main features. The box will include a 60-ounce turkey breast (in a self-cook bag), gravy, potatoes, cranberry sauce, green bean casserole, veggie stuffing, roasted balsamic Brussels sprouts, biscuits with maple butter and roasted yams with pecan and brown sugar crumble to finish the meal. The box serves four people and customers will have to order by Nov. 16, but with limited quantity; it will be dependent on how long supplies last.
Good news for the vegetarians and vegans: no boring Tofurky for you this year. Martha Stewart ditched the box this year and instead is providing an a la carte selection for her subscribers. Her subscription company, Martha & Marley Spoon, is offering a more DIY approach this year, with an appetizer, three sides and two dessert recipes to pick and choose from. The main course is on you to prep and cook, and the rest will be included in the order as part of your weekly selection. The appetizer will be a barbecue meatball, bean dip and chips, and the sides include cream cheese mashed potatoes and green beans, cheesy sausage stuffing, and parmesan-thyme biscuits with honey-glazed roasted vegetables. For dessert, cream cheese-swirled pumpkin pie with chocolate shortbread crust and a Pink Lady apple crisp. You can pick a minimum of two recipes, and up to all six for delivery. Orders must be placed by Nov. 18 and come in two serving sizes: The couples plan recipes serve six to eight people and the family plan recipes serve eight to 10.
