4 Danksgiving Recipes To Be Thankful For This Year

Danksgiving, a time of thanks, appreciation, football and cannabis-infused foods. First, let us give thanks to the progress cannabis reform has made in the US within the past few years. Let us thank those individuals who continue to spread accurate and educational cannabis information on a daily basis. Of course we cannot forget to thank you, the responsible consumer, for respecting cannabis and being a part of our PotGuide community. We hope your holiday is filled with the fresh scent of terpenes, the bright glow of joints roasting, sparkling kief falling from the sky and cannabis-infused gravy!

For this very special occasion, we put together a list of cannabis-infused recipes to try this Danksgiving.

Turkey and mashed potatoes covered in gravy are two Thanksgiving staples. But turkey and mashed potatoes covered in cannabis-infused gravy are Danksgiving staples! Load up your plate and drench it all in gravy. Now is the time to indulge, after all!

There really isn’t anything sexy or exciting about green bean casserole but there are things you have to do on Danksgiving without exception or else the day feels off. For instance, it's always best to watch the Macy’s Day Parade with cannabis-infused banana pancakes and dabs of live resin. Same goes for cannabis-infused casserole -- you just have to try it!

Didn’t think green bean casserole could get any greener? Guess again! lotherington

3. Add green beans to soup and butter mixture, set aside
4. Melt non-infused butter in microwave

6. Grease your casserole dish
7. Preheat oven to 275 degrees
8. Evenly spread soup, butter and green bean mixture in bottom of casserole dish
9. Sprinkle corn flakes evenly over entire casserole
10. Sprinkle cheddar cheese over entire casserole

Whether you always double-down or pass on pumpkin pie, it's one of this season's great desserts that will never go out of style. Adding cannabis, however, will make this treat one for the books!

Be careful, these mini pies are tough to stop eating! Kimberly Vardeman

1. Using a 3 in. round cookie cutter, cut out individual rounds from pie crusts
2. Grease mini muffin baking pan (We used a 24 cup mini muffin baking pan)
3. Take one round pie crust cut and place over individual cup of the mini muffin pan. Using your fingers, form the pie crust in bottom of the cup so that the edges of the crust are flush with the top of the pan. You are trying to form mini pie crusts or “cups” to fill with pie filling
4. In mixer, beat cream cheese, pumpkin puree, sugar, vanilla extract, eggs and cannabis-infused honey until thoroughly combined
5. With a spoon, fill each mini crust to the top so the filling and crust edges are flush
6. Bake at 300 degrees for about 10-12 minutes so the pie filling is fully cooked and the pie crust is golden brown and flaky
7. Remove mini pie bites from mini muffin pan and place on cooling rack
8. Serve with a nice dollop of Cool Whip

There you have it! Four Thanksgiving staples easily transformed into Danksgiving classics. If you really want to start the meal properly, roll a king size joint and place it in the middle of the table. Just before eating, the host of Danksgiving will take the joint and say something they are thankful for, then light the joint, take a rip and pass it to the next guest who will do the same thing. Once everyone has had their turn, dig in and enjoy your meal.

Danksgiving is a fun holiday meant to be fully enjoyed, so fill yours with cannabis, laughter and lots of DANK food.
