Trying for a healthier Thanksgiving

Guest post written by Margaret Beacon

I've been on somewhat of a health kick lately and feel like I'm in so much better shape. Plus, lots of people have been complimenting me and telling me that it looks like I've lost weight! Besides feeling like I have more energy, that's a really great side effect. So I'm going to try and find some healthier ways to fix some of the Thanksgiving classic dishes.

I've been reading a lot about what's better for you to eat online with our clear wireless internet and have been finding out all kinds of information. I found out that both pumpkin pie and lemon meringue pie is a lot healthier and has less calories than pecan pie and cheery pie! I would have never guessed all of that.

But another thing that I found that I think would be really good and a whole lot healthier is making olive oil mashed potatoes instead of regular old ones. I actually made them for dinner the other night and they were really good! So they're definitely a go for Thanksgiving.
