Would you like to simplify your Thanksgiving Day dinner at home this year? Consider pre-ordering an entire Thanksgiving Day dinner from a local restaurant or grocery store. All you have to do is drive to the restaurant or store and pick up your pre-made Thanksgiving dinner.

Thanksgiving should be a relaxing time of year spent with friends and family. If you do not enjoy cooking a Thanksgiving Day feast, everyone will enjoy each other's company much more if your dinner is prepared for you. Sitting back, conversing, and relaxing with your loved ones is what the holiday is all about.

The following places offer Thanksgiving Day dinners to go and are available in many locations throughout the United States.

Marie Callender's Restaurant and Bakery

At Marie Callender's, you can choose from five different take-home Holiday Feasts. Each Holiday Feast serves six to eight people. The prices for Marie Callender's Holiday Feasts range from $89.99 to $139.99. You may choose from turkey or ham dinners or a combination of both turkey and ham. These Holiday Feasts include all the extras you need for a complete Thanksgiving dinner: Apple-Sage Stuffing; Fire-Roasted Yams (with cranberry streusel topping); Cranberry Sauce; Fresh Mashed Potatoes; Turkey Gravy; Chef's Vegetables; Fresh Baked Cornbread; Whole Pumpkin or Apple Pie; and Marie's Special Blend Coffee.

Considering the amount of money spent at a grocery store simply buying all the ingredients to make a Thanksgiving Day dinner for six to eight people, Marie Callender's Holiday Feasts are a reasonable alternative. Think of the time you will save letting all the preparation and cooking be done for you.

If you want to make your Thanksgiving Day dinner a bit more traditional by making most of the dishes at home, Marie Callender's also offers a la carte options. Such options include an oven roasted turkey breast for $34.99 or a whole roasted turkey for $46.99.

Albertsons, Safeway, Whole Foods, or Your Local Grocery Store

My family and I are going out to eat this Thanksgiving, but this was a great article for those who don't want to cook and are going to stay at home.

Great article! I would imagine that this would be great for someone who was just busy - or who just always seemed to burn the turkey!

I've thought about this many times...but there's a certain amount of fun/satisfaction in cooking the dinner. For me, it adds to the spirit of the holiday...but one of these days I may very do it. It's also fun to go out, but then the downside is there's no leftovers! :-)
