The holidays are the best time of the year for family traditions, or shall I say, “food traditions.” The turkey, the mashed potatoes, the cranberry sauce, and the stuffing are staples for the traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Tradition is important, but so is creativity. Since I focus heavily on healthy, Greek inspired dishes, I have created my own recipes as an alternative to some Thanksgiving traditional dishes.

The most classic of Thanksgiving dishes is, of course, the turkey. My recipe, Stuffed Turkey Breast Roulade, is a delicious innovative alternative to the traditional turkey. This low-fat meal is the perfect feast for those who are health conscious. You can view my recipe below. I hope you enjoy it.

Mashed potatoes are the most popular side companion dish to the turkey. But this dish can immediately make you feel as stuffed as the turkey, and it packs a lot of carbs. My Cauliflower Mashed Puree is a fantastic, but healthy alternative to mashed potatoes. This tasty light side dish will delight your guests. And if you never tell them, they will never notice the difference because it tastes so similar!
