5 Easy Recipes for Your Upcoming Friendsgiving Celebration
Friendsgiving is right around the corner, and after stressful Thanksgiving preparations, you might not want to have the added anxiety of making another grand dinner with friends.
Below, find five easy recipes to make for Friendsgiving—some that are simple to create and others that can make use of your leftovers.
Creamy Baked Mac and Cheese
We think we can speak for everyone when we say macaroni and cheese is the most anticipated dish on Thanksgiving. However, when the mac and cheese isn't good, it's very disappointing. This year, don't let your friends down by making this recipe from The Chunky Chef. It has over 2,000 reviews and nearly five stars.

Crispy Parmesan Crusted Potatoes
Every Thanksgiving, we eat a lot of mashed potatoes, so when our Friendsgiving festivities roll around, we hope to avoid them. But that doesn't mean you must completely remove them from the meal. Instead, create a different version of them, like these Crispy Parmesan Crusted Potatoes by The Real Food Dietitians.

Pull-Apart Garlic Bread
There's never a single day we would turn down garlic bread, and we would be ecstatic to see them arrive at our next Friendsgiving because it's not a popular Thanksgiving dish. This mouthwatering recipe is sure to be the talk of any gathering, and it only has 20 minutes of prep time.

Sweet Potato Bites
Every Friendsgiving dinner needs a dessert, and these Sweet Potato Bites by Lauren Miyashiro at Delish are sure to become a hit. We're the kind of people (and most others in our life) who'd rather stuff small finger foods into our mouths, and these bite-size sweet potato pies are the perfect size to do so. It only takes 40 minutes to serve this buttery sweet treat.

Thanksgiving Leftover Egg Rolls
If your Friendsgiving occurs after your family's Thanksgiving, you must make these egg rolls. This innovative recipe will ensure you get rid of all your leftovers, from turkey to mashed potatoes and stuffing. It's super simple to make because everything will be cooked, and for extra savory flavoring, you can dip them into gravy.
