Thanksgiving is a holiday to be grateful and to cheat on your diet big time. If you are like me, when I go to my family’s house to celebrate it is all about indulging and there is never a healthy alternative -only the salad that I’ll make five minutes before dinner is served-. I am always wanting a healthy alternative, especially because I rather indulge on dessert rather than dinner, or even just a healthy option to pair up with all the carbs. So, I went ahead and gathered healthy Thanksgiving recipes for you to try this year:
