This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at LMU chapter.

 

Of course it’s great to celebrate Thanksgiving with all your friends, but if it’s not planned, it can turn into a bit of a mess. Follow these tips to have the most amazing Friendsgiving ever!!

  1. Plan a potluck. If everyone brings one dish, the host won’t be overwhelmed with cooking, setting the table, and getting everything ready.
  2. You don’t even have to stick with traditional Thanksgiving food. My friends and I had Mac and Cheese at our Friendsgiving at it was amazing!
  3. Instant Mashed Potatoes are actually pretty amazing! I was supposed to bring mashed potatoes and I have no idea how to actually make them, so I just picked up some instant ones, and they were actually pretty great!
  4. Split up the leftovers! Because everyone knows Thanksgiving leftovers are the best!
  5. Have Fun! The whole point of Friendsgiving is a no-stress meal with your friends. Make sure to let them know how thankful you are for them!!
