Every year, I spend hours shopping, prepping and cooking our Thanksgiving meal! Nothing wrong with that, but by the time we eat, I really just want to go to bed! That’s why I’m excited not to be cooking for Thanksgiving this year, just enjoying friends and family.
Here is how I managed not to cook for Thanksgiving this year:
Omaha Steaks has the best options ever, for a stress free, easy and delicious Holiday Meal!
I decided to be on the Team Ham side! I usually have turkey for Thanksgiving, but thought a change would be a good idea, so these were my choices:
You can order yours HERE.
Our Thanksgiving side dishes are:
Green Beans
Check it out HERE.
Find it HERE.
Our dessert will be:
Grab some HERE!
We have so many traditions at our home, like writing on our gratitude table cloth and sharing our gratitude thoughts before our meal; I also incorporate some of the Brazilian dishes into our appetizer time!
But what I’m really looking forward to this year, is the time with friends and family without the stress of worrying about the perfect meal or cooking and spending long hours taking care of it!
Don’t get me wrong, I love to cook, but having the blessing of clicking on the OMAHA STEAKS site, ordering our Thanksgiving Meal OnLine and choosing some amazing options to be delivered to my home before friends and family come, it’s a life changing experience for me!
Between traveling almost every week, getting deadlines met when I return and my family needs, I’m truly looking forward to watching holiday movies, spending time at home and just relaxing while reflecting on our blessings.
Now you know why I’m not cooking for Thanksgiving and loving it!

Okay every bit of this meal looks delicious!!! We’re coming over! 🙂 I need to try Omaha steaks, they have everything!

I love this idea! I am cooking but thankfully I have lots of help so it shouldn’t be too bad.
Marysa
That’s great you have a plan for Thanksgiving! We have cooked for years and it is SO much work. We have kids and it is just exhausting trying to keep the kids busy all day while we cook. What a great idea!

Cooking for Thanksgiving has been our tradition for many years. But, I think change is good and I feel as though we might consider different options next year. I like the idea of cheesecake for dessert! <3

I don’t cook much on Thanksgiving because it is only the four of us. I only make the stuff that my kids and hubby likes.
Catalina
This is a great option for those who have no time to cook for Thanksgiving! This New York Cheesecake looks like a homemade! Yum!
Shoshana Sue
I would like to order that cheesecake. I am not crazy about cooking and this is just perfect for a lazy person like me who hates holiday cooking

I love what’s on your menu! Simple but tastes SO good! A change from turkey sounds great, too!
Janis @MommyBlogExpert
Sounds like you have a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner arranged. One that will free you up to enjoy your family till the guests arrive instead of slaving over a hot kitchen all day!
Kelly Stilwell
This is such a great idea. I love Omaha Steaks. I wish I’d thought of ordering through them as I already ordered. I’ll definitely be getting my parents a gift certificate!
Melanie
I actually cooked tonight (Monday). We had a mini Thanksgiving feast today since we will not be able to cook on Thursday.
Pam
I wanted to get our Thanksgiving catered this year. I hadn’t no idea Omaha Steaks was doing Thanksgiving food.
Brandy
I am not sure if I am cooking or not. I want to, then I don’t want to. I am not even sure I’ll have the kiddos here so there’s that too.
krystal
I’m with you! We are not cooking either – we are ordering. So much work!
Amy
Omaha steaks is the best!! I love all their sweets and delicious meats/sides they have! So good!
Sue Reddel
I say, why not? We’re all so darn busy throughout the year. Why not order an amazing meal for your family and enjoy the day with them. Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Melissa
Sounds easy to me and stress free! Sign me up! We got Omaha steaks last year as Christmas gift and loved them!
Kristi
Oh my gosh… this is a perfect solution. Our families all have older kids who are involved with so many things that it requires us to be close to home. An easy meal is perfect!
Reesa Lewandowski
We love Omaha Steaks and I had no idea they had this type of option! Sounds delicious!

Ordering Thanksgiving Dinner is amazing! We did this when I had my second child and it was a LIFESAVER! We were having a bunch of family in town to see the baby (2 weeks old) and I just couldn’t cook for everyone. This was awesome! I highly recommend it! It was the best!

I love Omaha Steaks, and Thanksgiving is the perfect day to really take advantage. The food all looks and tastes amazing!
Amber Myers
I just love Omaha Steaks! I don’t blame you for not cooking. This all looks fine to me. I hate to cook, so I’m all about things like this. Yum!
Ashley
I wish I wasn’t cooking for Thanksgiving. Maybe I can do this instead and no one will notice lol
Tamara
We love Omaha Steaks. My mom sends that to us each year for Christmas. Their chicken is outstanding.
Tasheena
This is such a clever idea. I have to look into this for the other holidays.
Lisa Joy Thompson
I love Omaha Steaks! I’m actually excited about cooking this year. My husband will be cooking the turkey since I just had my gallbladder removed and I can’t lift anything over 10 pounds, but I’ll be making the rest of the yumminess! I’m starting my Thanksgiving meal prep today!
paula schuck
Sounds pretty good to me actually. My kids love a turkey but they also really enjoy steaks so this could work any time of years actually. I find it challenging to pick a good cut of steak so this OMAHA steak service would save me the trouble.
Alli Smith
All of the food looks so good! I always cook for days because I host Thanksgiving every year. It’s exhausting sometimes but I enjoy all the traditions and spending time with family. Ordering my Thanksgiving online sure does sound tempting.

More people are eating out for Thanksgiving. Some will order the complete meal delivered. All works.
Karen
This might just be the best entertaining idea I’ve ever seen. I would much rather just have dinner ready to go than spend hours in the kitchen!
candy
Many people I know are going out to eat for Thanksgiving or giving service at kitchens helping to serve Thanksgiving dinner. What works for the family.
