Wishing everyone a safe and healthy Thanksgiving! Here are some things to remember.
Turkey can be ok. Watch out for soy sauce, ketchup and mustard.
Stuffing. Unless it’s gluten free I avoid. This year we are using Aleia’s bread stuffing.
Mash potatoes. Fairly safe. Though watch for sour cream which contains vinegar.
Green beans. Generally safe. Watch seasonings such as soy sauce.
Cranberry sauce. Homemade from fresh is all I use. And it’s delicious and only takes ten minutes to make. I have found cranberry sauce in cans at Whole Foods that use sugar and not corn syrup.
Pumpkin pie. I make my own using gluten free pie shells. Store bought is very iffy.
Sweet potatoes. Watch out for marshmallows. Full of corn syrup. Bruce’s brand is full of corn syrup as well. Though Dandies brand marshmallow uses sugar.
Alcohol. No grain alcohol or beer. I can indulge in wine and brandy.
Corn, corn bread…no! Just no!
One more thing to consider: Thanksgiving is about enjoying time with friends and family. Savor the time you have with them. If you know something flares you, don’t take a chance. Eat the foods you know are safe. Enjoy your visit. Stay safe!!!
