Thanksgiving is one of those meals that looks big but that's so easy :D Mashed potatoes? Boil. Mash with butter, salt & milk. Candied yams? Bake, whip with brown sugar, toss in oven with a layer of marshmallows on top. Pie of any sort? Store bought pie shell for the easy, mix whatever ingredients in 1 bowl, toss in pie shell, put in oven. Stuffing actually takes a tad of skill but box mixes are quite decent and are totally simple. Cranberry sauce - put cranberries in 1 inch of water with enough sugar to sweeten. Add lemon zest if you want :P Eggnog, coffee and mulled wine for nummy drinks :)
By far the hardest thing is figuring out how to have everything done at near the same *time* :D
T-giving dinner is kind of a production here though - I have to make everything gluten free, which means all the bready products are from scratch 0.o
