We often get requests for this Thanksgiving favorite every year. It is a traditional favorite that, with it’s tart and somewhat bitter tang, really helps to cut through the richness of all the other dishes. Yet another great recipe from Wholesome Yum, this is a healthy, fresh alternative to the canned, overly-sweetened cranberry sauces. It will be one of the easiest sides you make for Thanksgiving, yet will yield a lot of flavor and beautiful color on your table.
This Alfredo Sauce is a delicious cashew-based sauce that gets its cheesy flavor from nutritional yeast, which is actually deactivated yeast. Found in most grocery stores (usually next to regular yeast), it provides a very nutty, cheese-like flavor that is a great source of B-vitamins. You can always sprinkle nutritional yeast on veggies or other foods by itself for a little extra cheesy flavor. You can use this Alfredo Sauce over any vegetable, spiraled vegetable noodles, chicken or anything you like.
Sour Cream is great topping on many dishes, but not so good for those trying to avoid dairy. There are two sour cream recipes below and both are creamy, rich and tangy – just like sour cream. While they don’t taste exactly like dairy sour cream, they certainly are close and a very tasty alternative. Once added to your food, you will barely notice the difference. The cashew-based recipe is creamier and very neutral in flavor, while the coconut cream-based recipe does have a mild coconut flavor. Both are good.

Looking for a recipe for all those homegrown tomatoes? Marinara Sauce is a perfect solution that doesn’t contain sugar, which is in so many store-bought sauces. It is a quick and very easy sauce, seasoned traditionally with garlic, spices, herbs and crushed red pepper. Marinara can be as chunky or pureed as you prefer and is a perfect complement to zucchini noodles, grilled or roasted vegetables or even with chicken. Out of season, you can always use a quality canned tomato, like San Marzano, whether whole or diced. Depending on the size of your fresh tomato, it can equal 1-1.5 cups canned. Drain the liquid, reserving only if more is needed after cooking.
Worcestershire sauce has been a frequently requested condiment over the years; however, traditional brands contain sugar and molasses. After trying many recipes, I think we have found the answer! You can use Worcestershire sauce in many ways to add a depth of flavor to your recipes – like marinades, soups, burgers, roast beef, salad dressings, roasted vegetables or even scrambled eggs. A little bit goes a long way, so you don’t have to worry how it fits into the plan. Just enjoy!
The creamy poppyseed dressing will become a favorite on any salad, but works very well with the sweetness of the berries.
Salad dressing is one of those items that can be troublesome when trying to eat a healthy, anti-inflammatory lifestyle… but it doesn’t have to be. Vinaigrette’s are so easy and add a lot of variety. With frozen berries year-round, you don’t have to just limit yourself to fresh summer berries with this sweet and savory recipe. While a vinaigrette made with frozen, thawed berries is best in a blender, you can also just mash fresh berries for a chunkier texture. Raspberry flavor is great in a salad, but think outside the box and serve it over roasted or grilled vegetables (asparagus, green beans, butternut squash, etc.), grilled salmon or chicken. Brighten up a bowl of fresh-diced summer vegetables, as well.
