Thanksgiving is the reason I keep avoiding starting a diet this time of year! I can make it through Halloween easily, but between our Friendsgiving Parties and Thanksgiving, FORGET ABOUT IT!!!! Even on Thanksgiving, we do a late BIG lunch and then for dinner, it’s left overs! I HATE left overs, but there is just something about Thanksgiving food!!!! Below I have my favorite side dishes!! I’m letting you know now that these are not all of my photos or my recipes! EXCEPT FOR THE CREAM CHEESE CORN && CREAM CHEESE CELERY! THOSE ARE FAMILY RECIPES!!! We loveeeee Cream Cheese as you can see!! 😉 The OTHER recipes have links to the original owner and I’m also sharing them on my pinterest!! (Click the Dish Name or the photo to go to recipe) P.S. I’m all about easy!! Like just a few ingredients && easy steps!! So that’s what you’ll find here!! I’m getting hungry just writing this!!!

Cream Cheese Corn! {There is a reason this is at the TOP of the list!! It’s my FAVORITE!!! Everything below this is in no particular order!!}

2 Cans of Whole Kernel Corn

1 Package of Cream Cheese

1 Can of Mild Rotel (3/4 drained)

Put in a pan all together and mix until melted and warm!! It’s the most delicious dish!! You’ll thank me for this!! Random mixture BUT IT WORKS!!!
