Healthy Thanksgiving tips: Try dipping your bread in tomato based sauce instead of a cream or butter based sauce. Remember that fat has more than twice the amount of calories than carbs and proteins per gram, so try to limit your intake of fat in order to avoid the overcosumption of calories.

Healthy smashed potatoes

When Preparing your potatoes, leave the skin on for extra fiber. It helps you feel full (which means you will eat less...hopefully ;) and can lower your cholesterol.

I boil my red potatoes until tender. Drain water, smash them and drizzle on some Chef LaLa Homemade Chipotle Oil for a smokey touch. Add salt and pepper. Serve warm

Tomatillo Jalapeno Steamed Clams by Chef LaLa

Ingredients

½ bottle (6 oz) Chef LaLa Homemade Tomatillo-Jalapeño Green Sauce

½ cup dry white wine

½ cup water

2 dozen little neck clams, scrubbed under cold water to remove any sand

Method

Bring sauce, water and wine to a boil in a dutch oven or large pot.

Add clams and cover, lowering heat to medium high.

Remove cover and stir every 30 seconds or so, removing any opened clams to a large bowl to prevent them from over cooking, until all clams are opened. (Discard any clams that do not open within 10 minutes)

Return all clams to pot to rewarm and coat with sauce for 1 minute.

Serve immediately, sprinkled with parsley.

Serves 2-4.
