Candied Yams vs. Roasted Sweet Potatoes

This swap is guaranteed to blow over just fine with your guests.

There is nothing too hard about this swap, and it requires no recipe at all! Not only will this switch up the texture, but your guests will be able to save their sweet tooth for dessert!

Vegan Low-Cal Gravy vs. Traditional Gravy

This is my all time favorite add on during holiday dinners. It’s the little things that count! Try cooking a low-calorie gravy to go along with your dishes this year versus the heavy gravy that will only leave you feeling sluggish afterward. Not only will you save on empty calories, but your vegan guests will be able to take part in the fun with this PS1000 original recipe!
