Whether you’re a Thanksgiving traditionalist, an all side-dish-eater, or you have a family member that just turned vegetarian, here are a few of my favorite healthier holiday recipes that will hopefully spark a bit of inspiration.

Yum! These are all such great additions to add to the holiday feast! I have some good friends that are vegetarian and I know they’d really any of these and so would everyone. The mushroom stuffing is really calling my name!

This is the whole meal! Love it, I will try do incorporate some of these into our meal. We do have a lot of family that likes a more traditional meal. But maybe I can sneak some of these things in. We are really trying to get off all processed foods, reading Ditching the Drive Thru by J Natalie Winch in which she discusses the best foods with the best ingredients. Her recipes are fantastic, I recommend her book, it’s a great read into how to eat well as a family, and how to keep it going.
thanks for the recommendation!
