Guest guest Posted November 24, 2004 Report Share Posted November 24, 2004 hi deana i'm not really sure that a holiday feast is the time to start imposing dietary regulations! nonetheless, the typical thanksgiving dinner could be quite healthy, if you use good quality, organic ingredients instead of store-bought stuff, for e.g. -a wildrice/shitake mushroom/herb stuffing instead of bread crumbs -a homemade cranberry sauce with natural cane sugar instead of canned -lots of steamed leafy greens like brussel sprouts and kale -flour-free gravy (just using the drippings and call it gravy - we do!) -yams instead of potatoes -organic wine -homemade pumpkin pie from real pumpkin filling, real butter crusts, and organic whip cream... -some fine cognac and a good cigar for sitting by the fire afterwards (or if you live in florida like me, outside under the palm trees...) mmm. sounds good - probably exactly what will have at our house! and get some of those lazy bones to help out - why should you do it all? instead of turkey maybe go for a big organic chicken - ALL food turkeys are hybrid mutants incapable of sexual reproduction read more at http://www.upc-online.org/fall94/breeding.html > Any good sites on "healthy" thanksgiving dinner menus.
