Thanksgiving feasts are infamous for filling our plates with a bountiful supply of butter, cream and other heavy based foods like rich breaded stuffing. Luckily this joyous holiday comes around only once a year and allows us to indulge this one time. The problem arises when we said to ourselves that we were only going to eat these types of starchy, rich foods on Thanksgiving day, and the turkey belly you now see over your belt loop has jumped its calendar date into the New Year, YIKES!!!
Ellie Krieger is a delightful chef that prepares diet friendly food on her Food Netork show, "Healthy Appetite." She takes foods that we would normally doust in butter and oil for flavor and replaces them with lighter ingredients full of flavor.
