Keto Thanksgiving Recipes to Help You Navigate the Holiday Menu

First things first: Nothing (no diet or resolution plans for the coming year) should stop you from eating all…the…food on Thanksgiving. But, we get it. When you've been working so hard, or have even just started to dabble in a different eating style or habit, hitting the pause button (and potentially going overboard) can seem like a setback rather than just one seriously satisfying meal.

This rings especially true for anyone who has been following the keto diet, which relies on maintaining ketosis—a state where your body has been trained to burn fat for fuel first, instead of carbs. And getting to that point does take some serious training time and effort. Carbs are typically the body's first source of energy, so significantly restricting them while also doubling up on healthy fats takes some real commitment and meal planning.

This is all to say, if you want to dig in at Thanksgiving without jolting your body out of ketosis, we've got you covered. Here, a complete Thanksgiving menu from all your favorite side dishes to dessert filled with delicious keto Thanksgiving recipes. (Looking for vegan Thanksgiving recipes? We've got that, too.)
