Travel-Friendly Thanksgiving Dishes
Freeloading on relatives can be fun. But not when they threaten to not feed you unless you contribute a dish to the spread. That's why we've put together this collection of recipes that not only keep well (like cranberry sauce) but can easily be packed up and baked at your destination (like the gratin or mac and cheese). Tell your family this excuses you from doing the dishes.
