  • One easy way to cut alot of callories at Thanksgiving is to cut out mashed potatoes. I use mock mashed very often and never get caught. One head of cauliflower cut into even peices. Steam untill very tender. Put into a food pro with two chicken bullion cubes, salt, pepper, no fat sour cream, and fat free cream cheese. Take it for a buzz untill it is very smooth, add a little of the steam water if you need to loosen it up.
    Bammmmm, you just save a few hundred callories... Good Luck.

    Roasted green beans topped with a little bit of onion fries instead of green bean casserole.
    Pumpkin Biscuits - http://www.anecdotesandapples.com/pumpkin-biscuits
    Fruit Salad - strawberries, green grapes, other berries, manderine oranges, with some club soda.
