Boarderie offers an easy solution: expertly crafted and pre-arranged charcuterie boards delivered overnight to your door. All you have to do is unwrap the platters and serve. It's no wonder the brand has been named one of Oprah's favorite things several years in a row.

For Thanksgiving, Boarderie offers fall-festive platters it says is capable of serving up to 12. Though, after trying it ourselves, we think it could stretch much, much further, especially with a major feast on the horizon. See all your choices here.

For vegan friends, the plant-based meal for two includes mushroom-stuffed puff pastry as the main and assortments of fresh vegetables and soup for the side. It's tricky to find plant-based Thanksgiving options, so it's a definite plus for anyone who avoids meat or animal products.

Check out all of Instacart's Thanksgiving options.

• Last day to place an order: Ongoing
• Good for: Groups of any size

Instacart is a grocery delivery service that you can use to lessen the burden of Thanksgiving dinner. If you're cooking all or part of the meal, you can place a grocery order for delivery and skip shopping in person yourself — often one of the biggest headaches of Thanksgiving prep. There's even a feature that allows you to automatically add the ingredients for certain NYT Cooking recipes directly to your cart.

Second, you can buy prepared foods straight from your local supermarket. The variety will depend on your local stores, but you can reliably find fresh roasted chickens, prepared sides, and a plethora of desserts. Orders can be placed same-day, so it's a great option if you've realized last-minute that you forgot a staple like cranberry sauce or gravy.
