So, y'all the dreaded Thanksgiving dinner is fast approaching next week! I've started making my list and modifying receipes to be healthier. What I've got going so far...
a spiral ham (yeah, no way around that one)
mashed red potatoes (with skim milk, very little butter and NO salt)
baked squash (instead of sweet potato casserole, thanks Kelt )
steamed green beans and/or corn
wheat dinner rolls
I've been trying to decide if I'll make a salad, too... I just worry that it will go to waste because I'll be the only one that eats it. I MAY just get a bag salad, and cut up fresh cucumber & tomatoes.... my parents will at least eat those.
as for desserts:
pumpkin pie (with the fat free cool whip)
chocolate pie (made with skim milk, reduced fat graham cracker crust & fat free cool whip.. shhhhhhhh my brother will never know the difference)
