Happy Healthy Thanksgiving

Some tips from health experts on simple ways to make Thanksgiving dinner more healthful:

1. No frying. Roast your turkey instead.
2. Whole Grains. Replace some of the white bread in your stuffing recipe with whole-grain bread.
3. Avoid second helpings.
4. Eat slowly. Savor the meal and your company. The slower you eat, the less you'll eat since your body will be able to tell you that it's full.
5. Avoid the pie....or at least the pie crust. Most pie crusts are made with either lard or shortening. Either way, they're full of fat.
