Menu Makeover: Thanksgiving


This Thanksgiving, keep your family traditions and indulge, but consider a healthier version of the traditional meal. By making some minor alterations to the meal, you'll feel a whole lot better in the morning - and maybe even have the energy to make it outside for your own game of football instead of just watching it on the tube.

Traditional Meal Healthier Meal
Roast turkey Roast turkey (no skin)
Stuffing with onions and sausage Cornbread stuffing with apples, celery and cranberries
Yams with marshmallows Baked Yams
Green bean casserole Mashed potatoes made w/buttermilk and roasted garlic
Creamed onions Roasted vegetables (drizzled with olive oil)
Cranberry jelly Cranberry chutney
Vanilla ice cream Cinnamon frozen yogurt
Pumpkin pie Pumpkin chiffon pie
