Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes
Healthy can still be delicious.
Feeling hungry? Well bring on the food! Thanksgiving is on its way and we’re absolutely ready to feast. If there was ever a time to indulge (or, maybe over-indulge) in tasty food and sugar-filled desserts, there’s no doubt it’s the holidays. Families and friends gather around the dinner table to enjoy each other’s company and each other’s cooking, and it’s one part of the season we all look forward to. It’s perfectly okay to enjoy yourself during the holidays, but some of us fall waaaay too deep into the food abyss. Healthy habits and diets often get thrown out the window, and our gluttonous side takes over. Unhealthy foods are okay in moderation, but just because it’s the holidays doesn’t mean this doesn’t still stand true. The good news is, you can still enjoy holiday feasting while enjoying it guilt-free. Simply incorporating some healthy options into your traditional Thanksgiving day menu, along with swapping out some unhealthy ingredients for better options, will make that over-eating damage not as, well, damaging. The best part – you don’t have to turn down any mouthwatering pumpkin pie! Almost every recipe out there has a healthy alternative while still being delicious, so there’s no need to worry about straying too far from your diet. Throw some healthy recipes into the mix this Thanksgiving with these Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes.
