My husband makes roasted Brussels sprouts with turkey bacon. Because he wants me to win this package, he's gave me permission to share his recipe ;)
6 cups of Brussels sprouts, halved
8 slices of Turkey Bacon, cooked, then diced
Salt
Pepper
3 Tbsp Olive Oil
Preheat oven to 385 degrees. In a large bowl, mix Brussels, olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Pour mixture in roasting pan and place the pan in the oven. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven. Stir mixture to turn over the Brussels sprouts. Sprinkle the chopped bacon throughout the dish. Return to oven and bake for another 5 minutes.

We're not doing anything for Thanksgiving here since we won't have family coming.
I'll be using this recipe this year for Christmas when the in laws come down. Can't wait!
My favorite thanksgiving side is cucumbers with sour cream. Thinly slice 3 cukes into rounds. I use my mandoline slicer on the thinnest setting. Use about 3/4 16 oz container of light sour cream and 2T white vinegar. Add salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate at least one hour to let flavors meld and sauce to thin as the water comes out of the cukes.

1 CAN PUREED PUMPKIN

I enjoy roasted brussels sprouts with baked chicken breast
My favorite Thanksgiving recipe would have to be pecan pie. While it's loaded with sugar, I'm all about finding sugar free ways to do it. One year we followed a Splenda recipe and used reduced sugar Karo syrup.
Next would be my daughter cranberry dressing. She uses fresh cranberries, melts them down, a little butter, orange juice and orange zest. Comes out delicious!
