I realize that I usually post taco recipes on Tuesdays (for Taco Tuesday), but for this week, I'm posting some Thanksgiving recipes in honor of the holiday later this week. Taco Tuesday will resume next week.
Are you ready for Thanksgiving? I'm almost there...
If you're in the U.S., you know that Thursday is Thanksgiving. It seems that everyone has some way to celebrate, whether it's a large gathering for a large, extended family, or a smaller, intimate affair. We all have our traditions, which seem to evolve over the years.
Here are six diabetic recipes to help you through your Thanksgiving, as well as any other time, including Cranberry Apple Crisp and Turkey Breast with Honey-Mustard Glaze. Hope your Thanksgiving is nice. Enjoy!
