Much more important things going on then counting calories.
So our day will look like:
Breakfast
Cinnamon rolls and coffee/hot chocolate
Appetizers
Veggies and Dig
Mixed Nuts
Cheese and Crackers
Chips and Dip
Dinner
Roasted Turkey
Family Stuffing
Cornbread Dressing
Buttermilk and Chive Mashed Potatoes
Green Bean Casserole
Cranberry Sauce
Rolls
Gravy
Dessert
Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream
Peanut Butter Pie
Wine and Beer will be available all day

Just me and the husband this year. We won't be around for too many leftovers. And I've never cooked a full Thanksgiving meal before... SO...
Turkey tenderloin
Corn
Peas
Cranberry sauce
Potatoes of some kind (sweet potato or maybe I'll try a twice-baked recipe)
Wheat rolls
Possibly jello with fruit in it if I can find gelatin free jello
Probably NOT stuffing.
Wow, that looks kind of sad. But practical!

Turkey
Homemade Dressing
Mashed Potatoes
Gravy
Green Beans
Rolls
Impossible pumpkin pie--from Bisquick--it's the BEST pumpkin pie you will EVER have!!
We will be leaving town the next morning and my Husband has to work on Thanksgiving Day, (life of a cop, duty never ends) so me and my daughter may just skip Thanksgiving and head to TGIF!! Who knows! Maybe we'll end up at Denny's!!0 -
We go to a friend's home for the meal and take along our "specialties" These will sound weird but.....I make homemade Chicken & Noodles (not dumpling!!!) and hubby makes Steak & Kidney pie. Our host usually makes 20-25 pies and of course has all the trimmings.
I will be exercising a lot that week and that morning in anticipation. I don't plan to pig out but I also won't be taking home any leftovers. I just plan on enjoying the day with great friends!!
Have a great Turkey day everyone!!0
