Thanksgiving is a great time to be thankful for great clients, spend time with loved ones, and bond over delicious food. Are you ever torn between loving the holidays and hating the calories they entail? This Thanksgiving, don’t sacrifice taste for nutrition. As you shop for your holiday celebrations this week, keep these options in mind:
- Sweet Potato Pecan Casserole: For this traditional treat, replace the butter with the sweet potatoes with eggs to keep the fluffiness without the fat. Garnish the top with pecans for a tasty and nutritious alternative to sugary toppings.
- Herb and Apple Stuffing: By using whole wheat bread instead of white bread and apples instead of fatty fillers, take the guilt out of eating a second portion on Thanksgiving Day.
- Apple Crisp: Throw out your apple pie recipe and replace it with this delicious, healthier alternative. Enjoy the sweetness of the brown sugar crumble without the fat of a buttery pie crust.
- Green Bean Casserole: Keep the tradition and the taste with this healthy rendition of your family’s favorite dish. Use low-fat milk instead of condensed soup to add your spice without all the calories!
- Herb Roasted Turkey: Your main course doesn’t need all of the butter you’re used to basting it with; instead, use olive oil and lots of yummy spices to add a little flair and natural flavor to your beautiful bird.
