The 'Cougar Town' star said: "I have, like, 30 people coming for Thanksgiving. That's a lot."
When asked what she is planning to cook, she joked: "It's all canned. It tastes great."
Explaining why she enjoys hosting large gatherings, she told PEOPLE.com: "I grew up in Alabama. where my grandmother on Sundays -- I have 21 first cousins -- got the entire family together at 5:30. So I'm just used to having big groups gathering."
It is not yet known if David, his fiancé Christina McLarty and their seven-month-old son, Charlie, will be among the guests, but he is still very close to his ex-wife.
Courteney also regularly hosts Sunday dinners at her home for friends and co-stars.
The former 'Friends' star said: "No one has family out here, so it's trying to create some sort of community that I have people over. I say that people are always welcome to come on Sundays."
Her co-star Busy Philipps added: "Courtney's really good about keeping people together. She has Sunday nights at her house."
