Healthy Thanksgiving Side Dishes


Have to make a dish for Thanksgiving this year but have no clue what to make? I am sure almost everyone reading this is in the same boat. But what if I want to make some sort of healthy dish to bring to the table?

Have no fear! Thanksgiving has been at my moms or my aunts house for the last 27 years, and every year I try to make something different to bring. Last year I had found a recipe for sweet potato mac and cheese. It wasn't much healthier than regular mac and cheese, but sweet potatoes have some great benefits, and it tasted great!

I am starting to research ideas since this wonderful holiday of ours is approaching in 2 weeks! Roasted brussel sprouts is always an easy dish to go for, but I am looking to make it interesting! I found a recipe for squash gratin (instead of potato gratin). Roasted butternut squash is another easy, yet healthy dish to make. Roasted vegetables, quinoa salad, and many more salads you can find as well! There are tons of dishes you can find online that are super easy to make, and guilt-free!

Some of you may think that I am a bit coocoo trying to think of healthy recipes to make over the holidays, BUT this is the time where many of us tend to put on the big ol lbs. You can still enjoy these healthy dishes by adding your own touch to it, and you will also feel healthy and not as bad knowing that you can make healthy dishes that still taste great!

What are you bringing to the table this year?
