5 Healthy and Delicious Alternatives for your Nostalgic Thanksgiving Recipes
By Andronico’s Community Markets
If we’re honest, we could eat roast turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and apple pie at every meal. There are just some dishes that have a permanent place on the Thanksgiving table because we don’t eat them nearly as often as we’d like. We love sugar, butter, and salt just as much as your inner child, but today we’re here to offer you equally tasty Fall inspired recipes to fill in for some of your childhood favorites or to serve alongside them so that you can offer a hodge podge of healthy and nostalgic sides.
The key to staying healthy through the holidays is moderation — have a half serving of mashed potatoes and if you’re tempted to go back for seconds reach for a scoop of our tasty Mashed Cauliflower instead!
