Best Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes
~ ~ Appetizers ~ ~
An old favorite and fun seasonal twist on regular hummus. All you need is 5 minutes and a food processor!
Baked Stuffed Baby Bella Mushrooms
These are delicious! The spinach adds a healthy dose of nutrients while the cheese ensures they are decadent enough that everyone will love them.
~ ~ Side Dishes ~ ~
My favorite Thanksgiving side dish. Packed with flavor, not sugar.
These taste (and look) like normal mashed potatoes, but the nutrition is amped up with cauliflower and cannellini beans. Packed with protein and fiber and they’re vegan, too!
Skip the canned gelatinous goo and impress your guests with this easy and way more delicious homemade cranberry sauce. Sweet, tangy, and bright, this can be made early to save time the big day.
Strawberry and Fennel Barley Salad
This colorful and delicious salad makes the perfect side dish. Sneak in those veggies!
Turkey and Wheat Berry Salad with Cranberry Vinaigrette
This grain salad is a great way to use up leftovers after Thanksgiving, or it would also make a creative main course or side dish on the big day, if you want to mix it up from the usual!
Quinoa Salad with Pecans and Cranberries
This dish was actually served at our wedding! It was so good I asked the caterers if I could share the recipe, and have made it many years now for Thanksgiving. It makes a fabulous side dish!
What’s on the menu at your family’s Thanksgiving feast this year? Feel free to share some recipe links!
