If you celebrated Thanksgiving today, you probably have some leftover turkey (unless you were lucky enough to be invited over to someone else’s house or ate at a restaurant).

This is a big week for Americans celebrating Thanksgiving. Although turkey is traditionally served as the main course, it’s likely that many of you will have at least one guest who is vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free.

Pumpkin Pie, along with Apple Crisp, are our family’s traditional desserts for Thanksgiving each year. Sometimes I offer to mix things up, but as many of you can probably relate, Thanksgiving is not the time to mess around with tradition in some households.

Thanksgiving Day should be a day for both the cook and the family to relax, but oftentimes, the cook spends the better part of the day in the kitchen. At least, that’s what used to happen in my house until I realized that so many of the Thanksgiving dishes could be prepared ahead of time. [...]

Thanksgiving side dishes and desserts have been on my mind the last few weeks. I’ve been a little stressed about coming up with gluten-free foods that will taste good, look good and meet the dietary restrictions of my son this Thanksgiving, and through the holidays. This is the first holiday season since we discovered my [...]

Recently, a friend asked me if I knew what she could eat to help her heal from surgery. I hadn’t really thought about foods that helped speed the healing and recovery process after surgery.
