Thanksgiving is one of those holidays where sweet memories are made. The hours spent with your mother or grandmother baking up all of the classic dishes that we all grew up with...it is all so fun and nostalgic. We love the simple joy of sharing good food with good friends and family. 

When it comes to Thanksgiving, you can be sure that we will always have those classic dishes cornbread dressing, green bean casserole, pecan pie, and the biggest homemade rolls you've ever seen, but we also enjoy bringing something new and exciting for everyone to try; our own little way of showing off the cooking skills that we have picked up in the last year. This past year especially has brought with it new recipes, flavors, and even new cooking methods.

We are adding some new rice recipes to the table this year. Here are some ideas for you to try this year, too.
