Thanksgiving Preparations

Yaaay! It's officially the holiday season with Thanksgiving just around the corner and Christmas shortly after that!
I'm putting a link to my first podcast about how to make your Thanksgiving a little healthier - don't worry, I don't tell you to only eat salad and skip out on all the pies. That would be basically impossible anyways. But! I am also going to give you a few links to some recipes that look really good and way healthier their original alternatives. I made sure they weren't too difficult either - a majority have less than 10 ingredients, if not less.
I'm hoping to try a few and see how they go. I hope you do, too! Good luck!
