T-day is a lot of fun to low carb.

1. Turkey.....
2. Cranberry sauce- just sub Splenda for sugar. For twists, I like to add raspberries or strawberries
3. Mashed potato- mock cauli tatoes
4. Something green!
Best broccoli of your life (roasted with garlic and lemon/fresh parm- see recipe forum)
Roasted Brussels or green beans
Salad with roasted Brussels, bell peppers, onions, goat cheese and cider vinaigrette
5. Jicama "baked apples"
6. Pumpkin cheesecake

ETA- saw Meme mentioned a cheese/dip/etc plate
m
Mom ALWAYS sets out a big crudités plate with various dips, as well as cheese and cracker plate for every family get together. My DH and I go to visit/ have dinner at least every 2-3 weeks, but heaven forbid mom doesn't have the snacks out for the occasion
Obviously I just skip crackers. A dry salami could nice touch as well.

I think it's a great way to stay on plan for holidays- gives you something healthy to munch while you prepare for the main event.
