Thankgiving Dinner
I need a menu. Please can someone send me one. I know I am just plain lazy. I always make a menu and a grocery list for Thanksgiving, but this year I have a feeling my menu is not going to be OK for me so someone has done this and doesn't mind letting me copy please send it to me. Thanks in advance

Kind of hard for someone else to provide a menu...there are lots and lots of things you can have, just a little of this and a little of that. If your family wants more traditional food, you can add the extra stuff on end of list. It all depends on how many people are in your family and their willingness to eat what you make/eat. There are also lots of recipes on Linda's website and throughout this website for lite and/or sugar free desserts and other items.
When I was on South Beach...I made
Turkey, of course
Cauliflower dressing (made from George Stella's recipe)
Cranberry Relish (the fresh kind with berries/orange/apple/Splenda
No sugar added pumpkin pie (made with pure pumpkin using Libby's recipe with Splenda instead of sugar)
Waldorf salad (George Stella's recipe)
Whole wheat or sourdough rolls
For the family?
Mashed potatoes
turkey gravy
regular dressing (cornbread or oyster)
Good luck

Since I am the only one that can't eat a lot of the traditional foods I make for turkey day, I am not changing the menu one bit. There will be turkey, stuffing, candied sweets, cheese potatoes, green bean casserole, three corn casserole, squash, gravy, rolls, cranberry sauce, olive/pickle relish tray and chicken soup with matzoh balls. I know I can eat turkey so I'm good togo. If I want anything else it will be just very small bits.
I got all my recipes that will be made bariatric style on www.bariatriceating.com
I'm making:
Turkey & Gravy
Mashed White Beans w/ rosemary & garlic
SF Cranberry Sauce
Pumpkin Maple Custard
Cream Cheese Cookies
For the non-ops I'm adding:
