Chrissy Teigen does not do all her own cooking for Thanksgiving.
In fact, the 38-year-old photogenic wonder relies on several fast food restaurants like Popeye’s and Kentucky Fried Chicken.
And the cookbook author even relies on the Happiest Place On Earth, Disneyland in Anaheim, California.
The fashion model talked to Travel + Leisure about her cheats.
‘We are getting 20 smoked turkey legs from Disneyland,’ said the wife of crooner John Legend.
‘Anyone that’s had those before knows that they taste like ham, they’re crazy to me. Turkey does not get better than that,’ noted the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model.

‘We’ll just lean up against the dumpster and pick at turkey legs when we’re at Disneyland. That’s one of my favorite moments always, so, that’s my cheat for turkey this year.’
And she doesn’t make her own gravy either.
‘I love Popeye’s and KFC gravy so much, and I’ve learned through so many years of being stressed out about Thanksgiving or the holidays that if you love the flavor of something, and you really can’t do it better than the one you love, or the one you grew up on,’ she said.
‘Just bring it in…’ she added.
‘I used to put so much pressure on myself to be perfect, and to do everything perfectly.
‘But the holidays are so much about family and not running around the kitchen, so I like to keep things as fun and simple as possible.’

Teigen also shared how she keeps her four children occupied on a plane.
‘An iPad for the older kids. They are on their iPads or playing games and there’s no rules. If everyone’s quiet, I’m happy,’ she said.
‘The babies right now aren’t that into screens, thank God.

‘I saw this little trick on TikTok, where people get colorful painter’s tape, and you just take different pieces of tape, and you put it on the window and on the seat in front of you and they take that tape off for hours on a flight.
‘They just pull it and play with it in their hands – it’s the best thing I’ve ever learned for little ones.
‘And I do my paint by numbers on an airplane, because I need to be occupied, too.’
On her go-to plane snack:
‘Beef jerky. And I can never turn down a plane meal, even if I’m totally full.
‘I love Pop Corners cheddar chips and Goldfish. But beef jerky is probably my number one — a good spicy piece of thick cut jerky is great.’
