Okay! Look at you with enough friends to shop at Costco for their Friendsgiving<\/a>! Joking, joking, because guess what\u2014I can shop there, too! While there are a few options that require a little more planning ahead (like, what you’ll do with the leftovers), there are a lot of smart things to buy at Costco for your Friendsgiving. So get ready to fill your table and share some fun dishes with your friends after your next trip to Costco. Sure, you could always just buy 20 hot dog combos at the snack bar, but here’s what to buy at Costco if that sounds too complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pr\u00e9sident Brie<\/a><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

A well-appointed appetizer table is essential to a good Friendsgiving. Especially when you have a friend group like I do. God forbid anyone gets anywhere on time! The beauty of stocking up on Friendsgiving appetizers at Costco is that you\u2019ll have plenty<\/em> of food to keep the early arrivals satiated until your \u201cfashionably\u201d late friends stumble through the door right before the turkey gets cold. Pr\u00e9sident\u2019s Brie is perfect to simply plop on the table with some crackers<\/a> and a nice summer sausage<\/a>, but this would also be perf for baked brie, brie bites, or other recipes if you really<\/em> love your friend group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cedarlane Foods Turkey Sausage & Herb Stuffing<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Every Friendsgiving needs stuffing. And I\u2019m not necessarily talking about the food! Ayy-oooo.<\/em> Well, okay, in this instance I am talking about the food. When I was looking for what to buy at Costco for Friendsgiving, I found two stuffing options, but I quickly learned no two stuffings are the same. The other option was a dried stuffing, which I’m sure tastes great and is plenty easy to prepare, but you gotta love a Friendsgiving side dish you can just pop in the oven. Plus, this stuffing has turkey sausage\u2014even the best instant stuffing<\/a> can’t hang with that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Noel Consorcio Serrano Ham Reserva Leg<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

If you\u2019re busting out this entire leg of jamon serrano for Friendsgiving (it costs around 120 bucks), then you are certainly in another tax bracket than me. But please do invite me over. This is swanky. This is elegance. This should require an online course to properly dish it out. But it doesn\u2019t, so you can just throw it in your cart at Costco and hope for the best! You never know what you\u2019ll find through those doors and I find that so beautiful.<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n\t\t

Wellington Bites by Chef Gordon Ramsay<\/a><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Okay, if an entire ham leg isn’t in your budget, you can still add a little cheffy flair to the Friendsgiving spread without going broke. Gordon Ramsay\u2019s Wellington bites are classy and you don’t even have to futz with any puff pastry. Costco makes it easy to cook Gordon Ramsey\u2019s signature dish and in a poppable form, which is scientifically proven to make eating 200% more enjoyable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Snak Yard Sweet Potato Sticks<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

Sweet potato casserole is a classic for a reason, but who says classics can\u2019t be upgraded?! What do you think of pairing these dried sweet potato sticks with a big ole jar of marshmallow fluff?? All the flavors and none of the hassle! Unfortunately, Costco doesn\u2019t sell five gallon buckets of marshmallow fluff in their stores, so you\u2019ll have to get a more reasonably sized container at your local supermarket. Probably for the best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Darigold Classic Eggnog<\/a><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

You might turn some heads when you pull out a carton of eggnog<\/a> from Costco this early in the year, but there are no rules for Friendsgiving! I like to think of it as the perfect way to usher in the holiday season. Pour everyone a glass and raise a toast to the time you\u2019re about to spend with friends and family\u2014not to mention that bitchin’ annual bonus you\u2019re about to get. Then you can buy that ham leg!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Delizza Patisserie Belgian Mini Cream Puffs<\/a><\/strong><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

See, poppable foods are in! My mouth. Poppable foods are in my mouth because they\u2019re just too damn easy to eat. While there are quite possibly too many dessert options at Costco to bring to a Friendsgiving, I finally landed on these mini cream puffs. Your job as a friend group is to bring as much food to share as humanly possible so there\u2019s no feasible way anyone will have room for dessert. Enter the mini cream puff. These things are transportable! And poppable! (Did I mention they’re poppable?)<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Soul of Spain Wine Box<\/strong><\/a><\/dt>\n\n\n\n
\n

I know very little about wine. When it comes to pairing wine varietals with certain dishes, I’m as clueless as Alicia Silverstone. Soul of Spain wine seems to have solved all of my issues by creating one simple box with five options. I\u2019m popping open all five bottles and just letting my Friendsgiving guests choose their own adventure. That\u2019s the power of buying in bulk from Costco! <\/p>\n<\/dd>\n\n\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n\n
