I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
My husband and I spent the day at my parents’ house, and I am super proud of myself for staying 95% keto!
During the days leading up to Thanksgiving, I made Low Carb Cauliflower stuffing, pumpkin pie, and cranberry sauce. I had ordered erythritol on one day shipping from Amazon, but it hadn’t even shipped three days later – I had to make due with Splenda. This is the first time I’ve ever cancelled an Amazon order. $8 for one day shipping, and three days later it hadn’t even left the facility? I was steamed.
Anywho, the stuffing and pie were delicious, but the cranberry sauce bombed. I followed the sugar conversion on the bag, but it came out way too sweet. Not even a trace of cranberry taste.
But on Thanksgiving my only cheats were a few spoonfuls of fruit salad and some whipped cream (not homemade). Everything else was low carb, so I’m proud of myself.
I brought mashed cauliflower, which was ridiculously delicious, especially with the butter I added. It actually tasted a lot like my dad’s potato soup which is awesome! I’ve tried two brands of this from Walmart, and I liked both. Kudos for Walmart jumping on the low carb wagon btw… it makes my life a lot easier. They even have riced cauliflower, although I admit that ricing it is so easy in my food processor that I tend to save the money and do it myself.
Here’s to a low carb, nearly Keto Thanksgiving!
