It is always interesting to me how each familiy's traditional Thanksgiving dinner can be so different from one another.

For example, when I married my husband I was suprised to find his family always ate mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving day. Well, my family never did. I have no idea why. Now, I can't have Thanksgiving dinner without some tasty, homemade mashed potatoes.

On the other hand, my family always had oyster dressing which is something my husband's family squarely turns its nose up at. Well, such is the mixing of two families, right?

I read somewhere that there is a sociologist who can predict with a high accuracy rate from what area of the country your ancestor's came from by the composition of your Thanksgiving meal. Pretty cool, huh?

Everyone has traditions and favorites, but they are not the same. I'm curious, what are your favorite recipes your family must have every Thanksgiving? Tell me below, especially if it is something unique or unusual.

Here are some of my family's favorites:

Best Baked Macaroni Cheese Recipe
Cheddar Cheese Sauce Recipe for the baked macaroni and cheese, along with detailed instructions for making a good cheese sauce
Cooking Green Beans Southern Style
Best Cornbread Recipe (an ingredient in our Thanksgiving dressing)
Easy Banana Pudding Recipe - a great dessert, along with the classic pumpkin pie
