December 2024 Cooking Demo


This month, I made  2 quick and healthy Thanksgiving inspired meals. I like to use seasonal ingredients that are peak in flavors and packed with nutrients.


Get Recipe Here:

  1.  Gluten-Free Pear Pie (healthy Thanksgiving dessert): Gluten-Free Pear Pie | Zara Cooks

  2. Turkey Stroganoff (using leftover Thanksgiving turkey): Turkey Stroganoff | American Diabetes Association

 




Pattie's notes:

  • If your don't have maple syrup, use honey or agave in the same ratio.

  • Add chopped celery and carrot to turkey stroganoff for more fiber

  • I used chickpea Cavatappi pasta (for more fiber and some protein) instead of egg noodles in the turkey stroganoff recipe


Don't stress about carb or calories, but instead enjoy your meals with family and friends. Here are some tips to help you enjoy your holiday meals.


  • Portion of your carb (starches, fruits and dessert), protein and vegetables on your plate before eating.

  • If you still want more go for more proteins and vegetables.

  • Drink water before going for seconds or thirds.

  • Take a walk or moving around after meal to help your body bring down blood sugar faster.
