Tips For a WW-Friendly Thanksgiving
Make your Thanksgiving stress-free, flavorful, and low in points with these quick tips!
- Make-Ahead Magic: Prep sides and desserts the day before, think mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce, or pumpkin pie cups, to save yourself big-day stress.
- Scale for Your Crowd: Cooking for a small group? Many of our recipes are already great for smaller gatherings, but if you’re serving more, you can easily double or triple the recipe.
- Use Many Appliances: Oven space is precious on Thanksgiving! Make the most of the air fryer and slow cooker. Cook veggies, sweet potatoes, or even small proteins in the air fryer for a quick, fuss-free option. It’s a time-saver and just as delicious!
- Low-Point Swaps: To keep these Thanksgiving recipes low-point, we often swap heavy cream or butter with cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, or unsweetened almond milk. These healthy and easy swaps keep points low while making every bite rich and creamy.
- Leftover Love: These WW-friendly mains and sides reheat beautifully, making them perfect for post-holiday lunches or a second helping. Use leftover stuffing to make our stuffing waffles, and leftover cranberry sauce to make our cranberry overnight oats!
