    • Slide 3 of 23: The first thing you need to do before getting ready for Thanksgiving is clean out your fridge, freezer and pantry to make room for all of the ingredients you need for dinner. Do this sooner rather than later, ideally a week out. Know how long food lasts in your freezer and pantry, and toss any expired or no-longer-desirable items. While cleaning out your pantry or freezer, you may find some necessary Thanksgiving ingredients that have long shelf lives, like cream of mushroom soup, frozen veggies or rice.

Slide 10 of 23: Favorite holiday pies like apple or pumpkin will be good in your fridge for up to one week, so you can — and should — make these before Thanksgiving Day itself. Take a weeknight leading up to the holiday, say Tuesday, to get this task done. Keep your pies in the fridge until you’re ready to serve them.
