                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

Download it for Android, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bigoven.android" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> and for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bigoven-350-000-recipes/id294363034?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.]]>

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.

If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.

If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

Download it for Android, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bigoven.android" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a> and for iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bigoven-350-000-recipes/id294363034?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.]]>

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”

<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).

                    <![CDATA[From recipes to timers, this year’s crop of Thanksgiving websites and apps are just about guaranteed to keep you from wishing you had five extra hands and three fewer kids while trying to get the Thanksgiving feast from the kitchen to the table.
<h2><strong>1. The Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</strong></h2>
Although Bon Appétit Magazine has been helping foodies navigate the kitchen since Baby Boomers were kids, it has managed to remain hip and relevant. Proof? The <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/collection/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bon Appétit Thanksgiving Headquarters</a>, offering recipes, tips on how to survive, step-by-step videos and more.

Is there a vegetarian in the family? Bon Appetit also offers “<a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipes/vegetarian/slideshow/vegetarian-thanksgiving-menu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">41Thanksgiving Vegetarian Recipes for a Meatless Holiday</a>.”
<h2><strong>2. Food Network “In the Kitchen” App</strong></h2>
What would meal time be without Food TV? Even better is the <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.com/thanksgiving" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Food Network’s amazing website</a> where you can get the recipes you see being made on the shows and from America’s top chefs, celebrity and otherwise.

The Food Network “In the Kitchen” app brings it all to your mobile device to ensure you don’t miss a trick on Thanksgiving.

The app was updated just last month and you can <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/food-network-in-the-kitchen/id399072152?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">download</a> it for both iPhone and iPad in the iTunes store and for Android <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scripps.android.foodnetwork&amp;hl=en" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

<strong>&nbsp;</strong>
<h2><strong>3. Epicurious Everywhere</strong></h2>
While it’s not Thanksgiving specific, <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the Epicurious Everywhere app</a>&nbsp;is full of recipes for all holidays as well as basic every-day meals. That it’s been downloaded more than 8 million times has to be some sort of testament to its usefulness, right?

Last updated in August 2018, not only will you get recipes but shopping list builders (you haven’t done your shopping yet?!), tips on how to use your leftovers and timers.

Download for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gouiti.epicurious.recipe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Android</a>, iPad, <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/epicurious-recipes-shopping/id312101965?mt=8&amp;ign-mpt=uo%3D4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">iPhone</a>, B&amp;N Nook Color, Windows Phone and Kindle Fire <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/services/mobile" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.

I actually like the website better than the app. Offering tips on everything from how to prep a turkey to vegetarian Thanksgiving recipes and how to smoke a turkey, you’ll find just about everything you need, at <a href="https://www.epicurious.com/search/thanksgiving?page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Epicurious.com</a>.
<h2><strong>&nbsp;4.&nbsp;</strong><strong>For the vegans in the family</strong></h2>
If the photos are any indication, a “Plantsgiving” feast awaits you at <a href="https://veganheaven.org/all-recipes/25-vegan-thanksgiving-recipes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VeganHeaven.org</a>. The photo of Sina’s “Festive Falafel with Cranberry Pear Dip,” looks divine.

You’ll find 24 additional yummy vegan holiday recipes at VeganHeaven.

Need more? The folks at <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/thanksgiving/menu-vegan" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SeriousEats.com</a> offer some brilliant Thanksgiving recipes for vegans. <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/11/vegetables-wellington-the-ultimate-plant-based-vegan-holiday-roast-recipe.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">“Vegetables Wellington”</a>&nbsp;might rival the meat-eater’s turkey as the table’s centerpiece – it’s <em>that </em>impressive.

<h2><strong>5. Timer+</strong></h2>
One of the trickiest things for anyone new to preparing Thanksgiving dinner (aside from not having a stove with three ovens and 12 burners) is timing all those dishes so they are finished at roughly the same time.

This is where the genius of the Timer+ app comes in. It allows you to set a different alarm for each dish and even add time if it looks like the turkey will need some extra time or the Brussels sprouts are still a bit crunchy.

This free app is available for iPhone (at <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/timer+/id391564049?mt=8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">itunes.com</a>) and Android (at <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/timer/9wzdncrfjck0#activetab=pivot:overviewtab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Google Play</a>).
<h2><strong>6. BigOven</strong></h2>
“Discover, share, plan and shop all in one place,” is what you’ll find when you download the BigOven app. More than 350,000 recipes (not Thanksgiving specific, but it does offer a “seasonal collection”) is reason enough, but you’ll also get a meal planner and the ability to make and share a grocery list.

You'll also love this feature: “simply type the three ingredients you have in your fridge and the app will pull up information on what you can prepare with them.”
