Lightly toasted bread is mixed with cornbread croutons, which you then season with a magical blend of onion, garlic, parsley, and celery. I typically avoid using the word "moist" because it makes me uncomfortable, but after you've cooked this stuffing, it's irresistibly... moist.

I bet you didn't think mashed potatoes could come in a bag. Wrong! These are made with whole milk and butter. By the time you set the steaming bowl on the dining room table, everyone will want a heaping serving of creamy taters.

Joe's cranberry sauce is not too sweet and not too tart, and nobody will have any idea it's not homemade. Just be sure to lose the jar before you take credit for cooking it.

Don't make your friends wait for the main course. Serve up Joe's Mini Quiche Duos as an appetizer. There are two types of quiche in here: truffle and swiss and bacon and sautéed onion. I can confirm from firsthand experience that both are exceptionally delicious. No I have never finished the whole box myself!.........

Autumn is the season of squash, and you haven't lived until you've tried Trader Joe's butternut squash mac and cheese. It's made with butternut squash puree and a blend of three cheeses, and you've never experienced anything like this before.

Why not go above and beyond and forgo the traditional cheesecake for pumpkin cheesecake? I'm definitely not suggesting you make it yourself from scratch, because why do that when Joe can do it for you?

You might not think salsa belongs on the Thanksgiving dinner table. Allow me to tell you why you're wrong. Joe's salsa is made with pumpkin, butternut squash, and apples, plus a traditional base of tomatoes mixed with red bell peppers, jalapeños, and lime juice. Pass the chips, please!

If you were to put fall in a bowl and eat it, it would be Joe's Autumnal Harvest Soup. It's a delicious mix of butternut squash, pumpkin, and slow-simmered tomatoes, with hints of rosemary and sage. This is the *perfect* first course for Friendsgiving.

If you really want to impress at this year's Friendsgiving feast, I have three words for you: Rustic Apple Tarte. The pastry is filled with sweet but tart apples, cream cheese, cinnamon, and sugar, all sprinkled with slivered almonds. I'm not drooling. YOU'RE drooling.

You're going to sound incredibly ~fancy~ when you tell your friends you've brought sliced and roasted squash with you for dinner. The slices have been roasted and then frozen, so all you have to do is heat them up. I already asked Joe, and he said he doesn't mind if you lie and say you prepared them yourself.

They're tiny pumpkins, you guys! Aside from the pasta being all kinds of adorable, the sauce is a grand slam. It's got a traditional tomato base, but it's also made with pumpkin, carrots, and butternut sqaush. Zucchette pasta and creamy autumnal sauce make the perfect pair.
