I can’t believe Thanksgiving is THIS WEEK!  It seems like whenever this time of year rolls around, we’ll be welcoming the New Year super soon!  But before you go shopping for that perfect holiday dress, let’s not forget about the most anticipated dinner party of the year…THANKSGIVING!  Whether you celebrate with a traditional turkey dinner, something completely different or something in between (we always have a mix of traditional and Korean food!), check out these healthy sides that are sure to be a crowd pleaser whether you’re hosting or attending a big Thanksgiving feast!  (Because sometimes it’s ALL about the SIDES!!) 3 Healthy Sides You Need at Thanksgiving Parmesan Butternut Squash Gratin I have to say, mashed potatoes are a staple on the Thanksgiving dinner table but if you’re looking for a lighter fared alternative carb dish, this parmesan butternut squash gratin looks PERFECT!  And an added bonus: it’s a veggie so you can fill up and still have room for another carb!  (Pumpkin pie, anyone???) Bacon Wrapped Asparagus Roasted asparagus is always a good option but anything wrapped in bacon?  EVEN BETTER, am I right?!  NOTE: If you’re looking to make this veggie dish even healthier, try wrapping in […]

The other day, the kids spied the spotted bananas and it was the perfect time to bake some bread!  Ever since I started a clean eating program 3 years ago, I have been more health conscious – especially with regards to the amount of SUGAR that […]
