Thanksgiving made by MOI

I made (yes, the 17 year old of the house was the one who made Thanksgiving lunch- because we don’t eat dinner)

…ok, so my mom helped, a little 

  1. Thyme, Pecan and Honey stuffed Turkey Breast Roulades (as opposed to a whole turkey, because I can’t deal with a whole turkey AND don’t want to eat dark meat, or gravy or stuffing- CALORIES GUYS)- yum, if not a little dry.  I ran out of honey half way through…
  2. Jamie’s Cranberry Spinach Salad -( as opposed to Cranberry Sauce- because I don’t like Cranberry Sauce) AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! The best thing on the table (and basically all I ate), I used Paul Newman’s Light Balsamic Vinegar instead of making my own sauce because I was lazy but I still added the seeds.  I made eight servings, but my dad ate like half of it.
  3. Organic Whole Wheat Rolls (as opposed to Corn Bread or regular dinner rolls) -Also AWESOME!!!!!!! I was so happy eating this and the salad (my spinach was also organic), I felt so healthy.
  4. My mom’s mashed potatoes- with Red Russet Potatoes, Olive Oil, Nonfat milk, and herbs, salt and lots of black pepper- too much (my mom made those)
  5. She also made the rest of the turkey peices (she insisted upon buying the whole thing and cutting the breasts out for me)  in a total desi way that wasn’t really that good… (HA! I WIN)
  6. Vegan Pumpkin Pie (which means low-fat and cholesterol free)- with soy milk instead of eggs and milk.  I couldn’t believe this was soy milk, it was so good.

THAT’S ALL FOLKS
Healthy and hearty and YUM! (to the gym!)
