'Tis the season for pumpkins, spices, crackling fires and... The Thanksgiving Dinner
Many see Thanksgiving as the ultimate holiday - family, friends(giving), football, Black Friday sales - what's not to love? But for us PWDs (people with diabetes), the Thanksgiving meal has the potential to be a major stressor. All those carbs floating around (sourdough bread stuffing, sweet buttered rolls, endless cranberry fixings - you get the idea) will send our sugars soaring and put us in the ultimate post-meal food-coma.
But

low-carb,
low-sugar Thanksgiving dishes out there (we are

and healthy.
Winner, winner, chicken(turkey)-dinner!
