Your house sounds fun

Looks like we are going to a fancy restaurant this year, because my brother is having major surgery the week before.

So here is a round up of favorites from years past-

Turkey and gravy

Green veg:
Roasted broccoli with fresh parm, lemon juice and crushed red pepper

Roasted green beans and toasted almonds

Roasted brussels

A green salad with roasted butternut squash, peppers and brussels- with goat cheese and cider vinaigrette


other veg-
Roasted carrots and parsnips
Roasted acorn squash with butter and splenda/cinnamon
Mashed cauli
Spaghetti squash Kugel
Turkey sausage stuffed mushrooms

Fruit-
Sf cranberry sauce, which I usually add strawberries or raspberries to, or sometimes just cinnamon and orange extract....

Jicama "baked apples" yummmmmm!

Dessert- I'm usually not in the mid for dessert, but there are tons of recipes in forums. I would do a pumpkin cheesecake, or a fruit cobbler using almond flour. Berries, pears, apples, peaches all make great low carb cobblers.
I usually just have some berries with ricotta beaten with splenda and vanilla. It's light, and then others can have pie and some fruit with the ricotta.

Oh, and I usually have a couple glasses of dry white wine
