I just picked up a copy of this Thanksgiving Meal Planning Guide ebook, which includes a complete (healthy!) Thanksgiving menu, recipes with nutritional info, and shopping list. Also included are several other goodies like decoration ideas, crafts to do with the kids, and even recipes for what to do with the leftover turkey.

If you’re hosting Thanksgiving this year, be sure to check this out, you’ll be glad you did
