Now that the weather is finally getting cooler and Halloween is over, we’re ready to fully enjoy the holiday season. It’s time to get together with family and friends and think about how much you’ve grown in the past year.
But whether you love having the whole family over to your house or have your own special holiday traditions, everyone can agree that family, friends, and, of course, good food bring people together like nothing else.
It can be hard to think of the perfect dish to bring to your next holiday party if you don’t have a go-to recipe you use for special occasions.
So, we talked to Bre the Malefic, an astrologer and psychic medium, to find out which Thanksgiving dish you should bring based on your zodiac sign. Find out what you should be cooking by reading on.
Aries: Roasted Veggies
Aries are known for being good leaders and willing to take charge in any situation, so you probably already know what you bring to the table.
Some people might call you the rude and impulsive sign of the zodiac, but few people give you credit for how far your passion takes you in life.
No one should be surprised that the holidays are usually full of action and running around for you. This might be too much for some people, but not for you. In fact, you find the holiday season’s busyness especially energizing.
Still, the best thing about a good leader is that they know they can’t do everything on their own. So, this holiday season, why not give yourself a break and bring a simple but tasty side dish?
“Aries, you’re still signed up to run on Thanksgiving morning, so you’ll bring the roasted vegetables.
“Your health is important to you, even on the day with the most food of the year,” says Bre. Your favorite vegetable mix will go great with some light olive oil and spices.
Taurus: Mashed Potatoes
Taurus, you love all things cozy and comfortable. While other people seem to be in a hurry to keep up with the latest trends or to reach their goals, you know how important it is to stay true to yourself and take things slowly.
You’re reliable, easygoing, and the kind of person who can get along with almost anyone.
Taurus is also known as the foodie of the zodiac, so Thanksgiving is a great time to show off your cooking skills and show everyone what you can do.
Mashed potatoes are a dish that a lot of people have strong feelings about, so you’ll work hard to make sure yours is perfect so you can leave a lasting impression.
“Is there anything more comforting than perfectly mashed potatoes? Taurus, you already know the answer is “no,” and you even have a recipe to prove it.
Bre says, “Make the cheesiest, coziest mashed potatoes the Thanksgiving table has ever seen, and you’ll be sure to have the biggest Tupperware containers for leftovers.”
Gemini: Green Bean Casserole
You love chaos, so all the running around and getting ready that comes with the holidays is exciting for you.
Others might feel overwhelmed by all the planning, preparing, and socializing that comes with the holidays, but you’re ready to take on the challenge.
And since we’re talking about challenges, why not make a big splash this year with your side dish and bring your classic green bean casserole to whatever party you’re going to?
People feel very strongly about casseroles. If you go to a house in the Midwest during this holiday, you’ll see at least three different kinds of this dish on the table at the same time.
So, what better way to impress than to bring your own tasty side dish to the buffet?
“Geminis are known for their keen eye for detail, so it’s time to put your research to the test with your tried-and-true recipe for green bean casserole,” says Bre. “Everyone else will want more and more of it while the other casseroles get cold.”
Cancer: Sweet Potato Casserole
Cancers know how to make people feel welcome and have a good time, so it’s likely that you’ll be the one to host Thanksgiving this year.
Cancers are the sensitive homebodies of the zodiac, so family and home are very important to them. The holidays are a great time to celebrate being together with family and friends.
Anyone who knows you knows that you never show up unprepared. Since this time of year feels like your personal Super Bowl, you probably already have a recipe ready to go.
Still, if you want to try something new this year, why not bake a traditional sweet potato casserole?
“There are different ways to make a sweet potato casserole, but it’s always as sweet as you, Cancer. “This dish is always a treat and a great way to wind down,” suggests Bre.
“This dish shows that you can make anyone feel at ease and is a great way to start a conversation about dessert and comfort.”
Leo: Hors d’Oeuvres
Leo likes to be the center of attention, but that doesn’t mean you can’t share the spotlight when it’s necessary.
You are friendly and fun, and no one else can bring a group of people together like you can. Your electric personality and magnetic charm can make anyone feel right at home with you.
Even though you know how to cook well enough to impress others, the holidays are less about the food and more about the people in your life.
So, you’ll be happy to bring a plate of tasty hors d’oeuvres to pass around as you move from person to person at the party and talk to them.
“Leo, you are bringing the food before the food. You know how to work a room and in two minutes you can catch up with everyone you haven’t seen in years.
You’ll help your friends and family feast on each other before they feast on you,” says Bre.
Virgo: Homemade Stuffing
Virgo is very good at paying attention to details and will go out of their way to impress others. You work hard to do your best in everything you do, even if you don’t seek out praise and approval as loudly as other signs might.
You think that knowing you took your time to make things perfect is the best reward for a job well done.
Still, you’ll be the first to admit that it’s nice to be told that you did a good job.
So, you don’t have to be the center of attention on Thanksgiving, but what better way to show off your skills behind the scenes than with the perfect homemade stuffing?
“Stuffing is one of the hardest dishes to make right, and you and your family know that no one will do it better than you, Virgo.” “You have the best way to do everything, and your stuffing recipe will be added to that list.”
Libra: Fresh Baked Pie
Libras love making new friends and bringing people together. As a relationship and community sign, all you want is for everyone to feel loved and valued for who they are.
You always find yourself putting people in touch with each other and setting the mood at any party you go to.
As the zodiac’s peacemaker, you usually end up settling all the little fights that happen when the whole family gets together.
So, your perfect Thanksgiving dish is something like a rich and delicious holiday pie that can bring people together when things get a little tense.
“Which is sweeter: a pumpkin pie, a pecan pie, or the Libra who made them both? “These holiday pies are the most beautiful desserts you’ve ever shared on social media,” says Bre.
“They’re so good that people will think they came from a store. After a long, tense day of Thanksgiving fights, these pies will bring everyone back together.
Scorpio: Spirits and Ciders
The holidays can be hard for you sometimes because they are mysterious and sad. Even though you feel deeply about everything, you find it hard to talk about it.
Usually, you watch a situation for a while to get a feel for it before you jump into the conversations and fun. Some people might think you’re more cautious than you really are because of this.
You can relax a little more if the people around you are more willing to talk first. So, you’re going to bring the one thing the party can’t live without: a little social lubricant and some free entertainment.
Bre tells Best Life, “If someone asks you a personal question that you don’t want to answer, give them a drink instead.” “People will feel at ease around you right away and start spilling the latest news just for you.”
Sagittarius: Dinner Rolls
For a sign like Sagittarius, which likes to go out and try new things, the holiday season can be very busy. You’ll be busy until the end of the year.
You’ll be going to see your family, traveling to see old friends, and taking that last-minute vacation you got a good deal on.
You’re pretty popular, Sagittarius, so it’s likely that this holiday season you’ll have more than one thing going on.
And let’s be honest, you probably got on the list of guests because of your great personality, not because you’re a great cook.
So, do yourself a favor and don’t try to make a side dish or dessert that is too hard. Instead, this Thanksgiving, offer to bring the dinner rolls and all of your best stories.
“Rolls are great for any meal because they bring everything together. Bre says, “They’re also the best side dish to bring because even if you run out or forget them at the last place you were, the party will still go on as long as you’re there.”
Capricorn: Mac and Cheese
You are very ambitious and competitive because you want to be the best, and you want to be the best even at family events.
Even though you probably have a long list of things to do that never ends, you will still move things around to make sure you can get everything done on time.
Capricorn, no one else is as good at the classics as you are. So, while other people would be scared to make mac and cheese wrong, you know all the tricks and hacks to make your dish the ooiest, gooiest, tastiest dish on the buffet table this year.
So what if you have work deadlines coming up and gifts you still need to buy? If anyone can do everything and still look good, it’s you.
“Mac and cheese might be one of the most important dishes at Thanksgiving, so who better than you, Capricorn, to take on this task?” Says Bre.
“You’ll try out several recipes to get the best crisp on top, make sure the corner pieces are firm but flexible, and stay the most reliable at the table.”
Aquarius: Meatless Entrée
Aquarius is the rebel of the zodiac, and that shows up at family gatherings, too. You love traditions just as much as anyone else, but only if they make sense.
As the person in your family who always tries to change things, you don’t mind shaking things up around the holidays or even starting your own tradition.
You don’t do it because you like making a scene, either. You just want everyone to feel like they belong and are a part of the fun.
So, Aquarius, it’s your job this year to make the Thanksgiving table as welcoming as possible by bringing a vegetarian or vegan dish to share.
“It’s hard to expect people to fit in with all kinds of people, but you make it easy. “You can show people what the first Thanksgiving looked like while breaking vegetarian breaded meat with the people around you,” says Bre.
Who can say? With your tasty dish, you might even open up people’s minds to the idea of eating without meat.
Pisces: Cranberry Sauce
Pisces are friendly and caring, and they like to spend time with their loved ones. In fact, you can’t think of anything that makes your heart feel as full as just sitting in a room with your closest friends and enjoying their company.
You are creative, caring, and always willing to help those who need it.
No one should be surprised that you like to bring a side dish that’s already made and doesn’t take much work, so you can help out in the kitchen or talk to people on the day of the event.
Pisces, you’re in charge of bringing this sweet treat to your Thanksgiving table because you like to notice the little things that other people miss.
“Some Thanksgiving tables have hit-or-miss cranberry sauce, but you should always give it the chance it deserves,” says Bre.
“Give those who like this dish a reason to smile, and show others what new things cranberry sauce can do for a Thanksgiving meal.”
