Good day everyone! (Deadline to complete pop quiz -- Today Nov 7th at midnight 
)
If we would only eat the white meat of turkey and vegetables during the holidays the weight gain might not be that bad if we even gained at all. But we all know all the yummy side dishes that trip us up every time! Test your knowledge.
Without Google's help put the following side dishes in order of calorie intake. Lowest to highest. We are talking 1 cup servings homemade dishes! 15points
a. Homemade Mac n' Cheese
b. Traditional Mashed Potatoes
c. Candied Yams
d. Mashed Cauliflower
e. Stove top stuffing
For bonus points (2 points each) guess how many calories each dish has!
***I think it would be more fun to post your answers right here on the board.. if you are competitive and you don't want your answers copied (lol?) send me a private message with your answers! Otherwise just hit reply and make your guess. Remember this is just a test of our knowledge so not cheating! ****

***************** ANSWER KEY *****************
(I took the calories from My fitness pal database.1 cup serving home made with full fat recipes like people usually make during the holidays)
Mashed Cauliflower 134 calories
Mashed Potatoes 200 calories
Stove Top Stuffing 300 calories
Mac n' Cheese 345 calories
Candied Yams 440 calories
Doesn't look like anyone got the order right (dang those tricky candied yams!) So give yourself 2pts for each food if you guessed within 20 calories of the correct answer.0 -
