Sixteen dishes over five courses, possessive family names with apostrophes and an accent, and no date, markers or theme. Checks that every dish appears once, in order, with no added descriptions, and that the default harvest look applies.

Same task, three directions

Pick a direction to start from.

01

Rustic harvest

Warm rust, mustard and cream with oak leaves and wheat. The traditional look for a family table.

02

Modern minimal autumn

Lots of white space, one muted autumn color and a single leaf, for a contemporary table.

03

Friendsgiving casual

A relaxed, playful menu for a potluck with friends, with a hand-drawn feel.

What the template keeps

The parts that stay consistent.

01

Your dishes, your order

Nothing is added, renamed or reordered, so the menu matches what is actually on the table.

02

Courses as headings

Course labels separate the menu into clear groups guests can scan.

03

Decoration in the margins

Leaves, wheat and pumpkins frame the menu without sitting behind any dish name.

How to use it

From details to a result.

  1. 01

    Write the heading

    Name the dinner, such as "Thanksgiving at the Lindqvist Table" or "Friendsgiving 2026", and add the date if you want it shown.

  2. 02

    List dishes by course

    One course per line, the course name, a colon, then the dishes separated by semicolons. The order you write is the order shown.

  3. 03

    Add dietary markers and a look

    Say which dishes get a marker such as (V) or (GF), and describe colors if you have a table theme. Choose tall or square.

  4. 04

    Review, send and proofread

    The brief opens in Vizify first. After generating, check each dish name and marker before sharing or printing at home.

Output boundaries

What to check before you use it.

  • AI-rendered text can contain mistakes, especially in long dish names and family names. Check every line before sharing.
  • Dietary markers appear only where you ask for them. They are not a substitute for telling guests about allergens directly.
  • The result is one image, not a multi-page or folded menu, and not a print-ready file with bleed. Home printing works best with a margin.
  • More than about 16 dishes makes the text small. Shorten names or combine courses for a cleaner menu.
Questions
How should I list the dishes?

Write one course per line with the course name, a colon, then the dishes separated by semicolons, such as "Sides: Cornbread stuffing; Green beans". The menu follows your order exactly.

Can I print this Thanksgiving menu template for place settings?

You can print the image at home for the table. It is a single page without bleed, so leave a margin, and print a test copy to check the text is sharp.

Can it include prices or a wine pairing?

Only if you write them into the courses field. A home menu usually has neither, and the template never adds them on its own.

Does it work for Friendsgiving or a Canadian Thanksgiving in October?

Yes. Change the heading and date to suit, and choose the Friendsgiving casual direction for a potluck feel. The decorations stay seasonal rather than tied to a date.

Can I mark gluten-free or vegetarian dishes?

Yes. Say which dishes get which marker in the dietary field, for example "(GF) on the mashed potatoes". Check the markers yourself, because only you know the ingredients.
