Choosing the right Thanksgiving dinner delivery for seniors can be overwhelming. With so many options out there, it's challenging to know how much food to order.
I've reviewed all the major services to find the best fit for your Thanksgiving celebration. I’ve checked the menu size, portion size, dietary accommodations, and more. After extensive research and testing – here are my top picks for this year.
Overall, HelloFresh gets my vote with its easy Thanksgiving boxes, meals, and sides. These are suitable for as few as 2 people, with sides coming in larger portions (but you don’t need to eat them all at once). It also has larger options if you’re hosting the family. HelloFresh isn’t the only great choice on my list this year – read on to find out more!

Full Thanksgiving meal and sides available in the Market
Look for Thanksgiving Feast and Big Batch T-Giving tags on the main menu
Available from 11/22 menu
HelloFresh makes it easier than ever to enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal without the extra time and effort of shopping or meal planning. Many of its seasonal dishes are available through the HelloFresh Market, with a few Thanksgiving-themed recipes also featured on the regular weekly menu starting November 22.
On the main HelloFresh menu, look for two helpful tags: “Thanksgiving Feast” and “Big Batch T-Giving.”
The Thanksgiving Feast selections include complete dinners designed to bring that homemade holiday feel to your table. A standout is Turkey Cutlets with Garlic-Sage Gravy, served with Mashed Sweet Potatoes, Candied Pecans, and Brussels Sprouts – a warm, all-in-one Thanksgiving dinner that’s easy to prepare.
The Big Batch T-Giving dishes are ideal for preparing side dishes in larger portions. If you’re hosting children, grandchildren, or friends, these make it simple to serve a crowd. Favorites include Brioche Stuffing with Cranberries, which can be ordered in enough quantity to feed up to 24 people.
Most of HelloFresh’s Thanksgiving options are found in the Market, including the Ultimate Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner (serves 8-10). This complete feast features Roast Turkey with Cranberry Sauce and Classic Gravy, Creamy Mashed Potatoes, Brioche Stuffing, and Ginger-Braised Carrots. Dessert is included too – a comforting Apple Crisp with Cinnamon Pecan Crumble that’s sure to be a hit with the whole family.
You can browse the main HelloFresh menu without an account, but you’ll need to sign in to see and order from the Market.
Your Thanksgiving Feast will arrive in a separate box from your regular meals. If you’re ordering turkey, plan ahead and allow 4 days for thawing in the refrigerator. Once thawed, it will stay fresh for up to 2 more days, so you can prepare it at your own pace.
The cooking time for the meat is around 4 hours in total. During this time, you can prepare the less time-consuming sides and dessert. This makes managing your time easier, especially if you're also looking after grandkids. Find out more about prep times in our tested review.
The Ultimate Thanksgiving Turkey Dinner is priced at $179.99 and serves up to 10 people, while the Thanksgiving Roast Turkey alone costs $129.99. Individual dishes can also be purchased separately, making it easy to round out your own meal or add something special to your table. Examples include:
For anyone looking to simplify Thanksgiving without sacrificing the flavor and tradition of a homemade meal, HelloFresh offers an excellent way to serve a delicious, classic dinner — whether you’re hosting family, having friends over, or simply enjoying a cozy holiday at home.
