Hungry Girl's Thanksgiving

Save-the -Day Stuffing
Per Serving (1 cup) 89 calories, 1.5g fat, 17g carbs, 4g fiber, 4g sugar, 5g protein














Ingredients:
6 slices light bread (Try Sara Lee 45 Calorie Bread)
1 Cup Chopped onion
1 Cup chopped celery
1 Cup fat-free chicken broth
1/4 cup Egg Beaters
1 tbls brummel & brown butter
2 cloves garlic
Salt, Pepper, Rosemary, Thyme, to taste
1 oz dried cranberries

Directions:
For best results, leave bread uncovered at room temperature for a night or two, until slightly stale.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Cut bread into 1/2 cubes. Spray a medium baking dish with nonstick spray, and place bread cubes evenly along the bottom of the dish.

In a medium pot, combine broth, celery, and onion. Cook for 8 minutes over medium heat.

Remove pot from heat, and add garlic. Season mixture to taste with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme. Let cool for several minutes.

Add egg substitute and butter to veggie/broth mixture and stir. Pour into baking pan, evenly cover bread cubes. Mix gently with a fork. Bread cubes should be moist.

Cover with foil and cook for 20 minutes. If you like your more crispy broil for an additional 5. Add dried cranberries, fluff with fork and serve.

I made this today and tried it. I over did the seasoning a bit so be careful on how much you add. I think with the miracle mashies and a little gravy it will be perfect!

I made this last night and finished it up this morning. I thought the cinnamon was a little over powering so I added a bit more splenda to mine. It is good. It will be perfect with my Turkey tomorrow.

Hungry Girl's Miracle Mashies

82 Calories

So I made these today for Thanksgiving. I wanted to make them ahead of time
so I could enjoy the day. They are AMAZING!!! I would honestly prefer these to
regular mashed potatoes. They are a must try and are going to be a frequent
visitor to my dinner table.
















5 servings

Per Serving (2/3 cup) 82 calories, 1g fat, 16g carbs, 3g fiber, 2g sugars, 3g protein

Ingredients:
1 large (About 13 oz) potato
3 cups cauliflower florets
3 tbsp fat-free half-half ( I found it at safeway)
1 tbsp light whipped butter
Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. While waiting for the water to boil, peel and cube the potato.

Once water is boiling, add potato cubes and cauliflower. Boil on medium for 15-20 minutes until both potatoes and cauliflower are VERY tender.

Remove the pot from heat and strain out all of the water. Transfer contents to a large mixing bowl. Add half and half, butter, salt, and pepper. I used a blender instead of a potato masher to make creamy.

ENJOY!!
