Dinner
Thanksgiving is my absolute favorite holiday. Ever since I can remember, my parents, sister, and I have gathered with 30 or so of our closest family friends to have a gigantic family dinner together. This year in particular, I'm especially excited to fly to Florida to be with my family.
Are you as excited about Thanksgiving as I am? I love everything about the day, from spending time with family and friends to traditions (a pre-dinner football game and a post-dinner Scattergories game is big in my family!) to favorite foods.
Vegetarians? Check. Kids? Check. Dessert fans? Check. In my ultimate Turkey Day recipe list, you'll find dishes created by my dietitian pals that will be loved by everyone, no matter their dietary preferences or tastebuds. Don't forget to get the whole family involved in the cooking process—you'll not only receive much-needed help, you'll also get extra bonding time with your loved ones.

To start, you'll definitely want to check out my list of healthy inspo, as well as my Ready to eat a healthy Thanksgiving meal?, before you hit the appetizers. Hosting a healthy party?
