Off We Go – Thanksgiving Bound

Hubby and I enjoyed a nice breakfast this morning:

fried cage free egg and oven-toasted (broiled) Great Harvest honey whole wheat bread with real organic butter. I only use a tiny bit. I estimate it’s about 1/4 tbsp, so only 25 calories and worth every bit.

I’ve packed some stuff to take to my rents house: leftover arugula (it will be bad by the time we get home), tofu, leftover honey whole wheat bread, and whole wheat rolls.

I’ve packed some stuff so I can work on my crochet projects (vegging out w/ yarn is one of my fave parts of holidays).

  1. my healthy Thanksgiving meal/great for turkey left overs!

    Thanksgiving inspired salad
    Start with a bed of lettuce/greens
    Toppings
    *dried cranberries
    *chopped pecans
    *fresh apple slices
    *leftover turkey pieces

    dressing
    I made a cranberry vinagrette from http://www.thedailyrawcafe.com

    Tangy Cranberry Balsamic Vinaigrette
    (Yield: 1 cup )

    3/4 cup olive oil
    1/2 cup dried cranberries, soaked
    1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
    1/4 teaspoon sea salt

    Combine balsamic vinegar, cranberries, and sea salt in a blender. Slowly stream in olive oil.
    Drizzle on top of salad.

    DELICIOUSNESS! and it hits the highlights of thanks giving (pecan pie, turkey, cranberries, apples) I would have also put pumpkin seeds in the salad but was out! Satifyingly Healthy thanksgiving!
