Thanksgiving Thoughts
This is a Sponsored Post
Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so I wanted to take a minute and share a few ideas that can make your Thanksgiving a great one. Now that we are in the Holiday Season, there will be all sorts of opportunities to eat lots of extra food. Just remember what your main goals are and try not to overdo it!
I know this may sound weird, but one of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving dinner is the mashed potatoes. One of my favorite recipes is to use real potatoes (not the flake stuff, yuck!), boil them until they are really soft, and then throw them in a Hamilton Beach® Mixer. Add some milk, butter, and garlic powder and start mixing them until they are nice and creamy. You just have to eyeball it a little until they have the right consistency for you, but I could honestly eat nothing but these potatoes (and at least a little turkey 
) on Thanksgiving and be totally happy! And they’re so easy to make, just a good Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer, potatoes, butter, milk, and you’re good to go! (The Hamilton Beach® Eclectrics® Mixer is a good option because of its features and also lower price point than other brands.)
So I hope you have a great Thanksgiving, and feel free to share with all of us some of your favorite recipes and past-times. Also, don’t let this be the season where you put on the most weight. Be reasonable in your extra eating this Holiday Season, but also have a good time!

I have tried so many diet programs without success and nearly gave up, and then I bought and tried Fat Loss for Idiots. It is a no-nonsense approach that really worked for me!
Nothing beats home made potatoes! I haven’t thought of adding the garlic powder so I’ll have to give that a try. My favorite part is the turkey of course, and the olives. I could eat a whole can to myself. I need to make this a good season to keep working out though.
mmm mashed potatoes are always a good choice for Thanksgiving. Personally my family has never really had turkey on Thanksgiving. We always did ham, mashed potatoes, green beans, and some pie! Can’t wait for Thanksgiving now!!
This looks like a really great recipe. Although it’s not Thanksgiving, I’m still going to try it this weekend. Bob from Cat Illnesses
This sounds really good! I think I’ll give it a try when my extended family comes over during Christmas break. Our Christmas feasts are very similar to the ones we have at Thanksgiving, so this will fit perfectly. Jake from Cat Illnesses
I love good mashed potatoes, and always have to make plenty, as they are a “leftover” favorite, as well.
awesome article shared by you and thanks for posting such a great article
I love mashed potatos too, but I think they are really fattening. But hey, it’s thanksgiving after all
Ahh, yes… Thanksgiving thoughts… It won’t be long until it arrives again. Thanksgiving is one of the times during the year when people can be guilt free for their gluttonous ways. Ha! Happy Holidays and enjoy the good eats; cheers!
