Perhaps no other holiday is as closely associated with food as Thanksgiving. While the holidays are not the time for weight loss, it is possible to enjoy turkey and all the trimmings in a healthy, sensible way. To help, we’ve mixed a few decadent recipes with slimmed down favorites so the entire family can enjoy a guilt-free feast. Just be sure to pay attention to portion size and savor each bite for a sensible and satisfying Thanksgiving.
Enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving with Turkey with Roast Chestnut Stuffing, Cauliflower Gratin with Prosciutto and Pumpkin Pie Best Light. Other Thanksgiving favorites to try this week include Brussels Sprouts With Sherry-Asiago Cream Sauce, Low-fat Cheesy Potatoes, Port-Cranberry Sauce and Guilt-Free Turkey Gravy.
