I don't have any main dishes to share - just have turkey and you'll be fine! But I do have a few healthy side dishes that you could serve and some meals that can be made with leftover turkey. Maybe you'll find a healthy idea that you can add to your current Thanksgiving menu!

Keep up the good work!
