Thanksgiving Sheet Pan Dinner!! For me – and I’d imagine you’ll agree, one of the BEST parts of Thanksgiving Dinner is the assortment and collection and combination of flavors and foods. Swirls of cinnamon with whispers of garlic, sprinkles of herbs and drips of maple, roasted, caramelized edges of cooked meats and tart cranberries.
