Thinking of Ordering Thanksgiving Dinner This Year? Here Are 9 Delicious Options That'll Save You So Much Time

Best Organic Dinner: Sunbasket

Sunbasket has a variety of Thanksgiving offerings that will please the whole family. With menu add-ons like prime rib sleeves, tenderloin roast, turkey breast roast with Tuscan seasoning, and Faroe Island salmon, all from Rastelli's, your plates will be filled. Sunbasket's Thanksgiving menu also includes three prepared sides—green beans with toasted hazelnut gremolata, herb-roasted rainbow carrots with charred lemon, and Yukon Gold potato and cauliflower gratin with gruyere. In addition, there are two Fresh & Ready sides of baked stuffing and sweet potato-maple mash with candied pecans and dried cranberries. For Sunbasket members, the holiday sides cost $25 for three to four servings and the protein options range from $35 to $79. If you are not a subscriber, you can still order many of these dishes through Sunbasket's Instacart storefront. All of these items can be shipped during the weeks of November 25 to December 27.

Best Turkey Dinner: HelloFresh

HelloFresh is bringing back its popular Thanksgiving box this year, known as the Thanksgiving Feast. It's available for preorder starting October 18 with delivery options from November 16 through November 24. This is a one-time order, meaning no subscription is required. The box is available in two versions and features all the fresh ingredients, easy-to-follow recipes, and in-depth meal prep guides you'll need to orchestrate the ultimate holiday feast. The first option, Turkey + Sides ($170 + $9 shipping), serves eight to 10 people. It includes roast turkey with a garlic-herb butter rub and classic gravy, creamy mashed potatoes with garlic and sour cream, roasted delicata and shallots with walnuts, parmesan, and parsley, ciabatta stuffing with chicken sausage and cranberries, and cranberry sauce with orange and cinnamon. For dessert: apple ginger crisp with cinnamon pecan crumble. You can also order an appetizer of cranberry brie crostini for an additional $20.

The second option is Beef Tenderloin + Sides ($135 + $9 shipping), which serves four to six people. Included is a peppercorn-crusted beef tenderloin with sherry thyme jus and all the same sides as the Turkey box, except for the cranberry sauce (and it comes with beef gravy instead of classic). Place your order no later than November 18—the box did sell out in years past, so we recommend ordering now. It should be noted that the turkey needs four days to thaw, so allow for that when setting up your delivery. The food will be transported in a climate-controlled box to ensure freshness and it can be shipped anywhere in the U.S.

Best Thanksgiving Sides: Home Chef

For the first time, Home Chef is releasing an entire Thanksgiving menu, perfect for an intimate gathering of friends and family. Beginning on October 15, you can order a la carte turkey roasts, which serve eight to 10 people, as well as up to five mouthwatering sides. Examples include white cheddar and sage biscuits with honey butter, roasted sweet potatoes and apples with poached cranberries and pears, and loaded mashed potatoes with bacon, cheddar, and green onions. The dessert menu features a delicious apple pie crisp with a brown butter streusel topping and a pumpkin cranberry cake with tart candied cranberries. The sides take between 30 to 50 minutes to cook, and the roasts can be prepared in two to three hours. You must have a Home Chef membership to receive this meal, and plans start at $50 per shipment and can go up to $333 depending on how many servings and recipes you want. All prices include shipping, and you can manage your account to pause or cancel at any time.

Best Vegan Thanksgiving: Purple Carrot

For a completely plant-based Thanksgiving meal, look no further than Purple Carrot. This Thanksgiving box, which serves four, contains quinoa stuffed delicata squash, rustic ciabatta stuffing, roasted brussels sprouts, pear cranberry crisp, and classic gravy and cranberry sauce, all for $75.

Best Thanksgiving Desserts: Goldbelly

Consider Goldbelly a godsend for the homesick. Why? Because it ships fully-cooked, fresh restaurant meals from your most beloved spots nationwide. This year, it has a curated shop of Thanksgiving Essentials, which includes smoked turkey breast from Houston and southern side dishes from Kinston, North Carolina. Goldbelly also offers divine treats like a 7-layer caramel cake from Caroline's Cakes in Spartanburg, South Carolina, which is a nostalgic favorite of mine. Other highlights include Boston Creme Pie from Omni Parker House Hotel in Boston, a classic Sweet Potato Pie from Little Pie Company in New York, and delicious Cajun Bread Pudding from Gourmet Butcher Block in New Orleans. Goldbelly has also compiled a genius guide to the country's best pies, including The PieCaken out of New York City, Cootie Brown's Peach Pie, and Wick's Pumpkin Spice Pie. Drooling yet? Between the desserts, southern staples, and full course dinners, Goldbelly has you covered.
