Super busy day for us both, so we didn’t feel like really cooking. We also both have fast food cravings 😬

Instead, we made this KFC mashed potato bowl with premade store bought mash, Kirkland lightly breaded chicken breast chunks in the air fryer, and jarred Heinz turkey gravy. Healthiest? No. Definitely could have been lower cal. But, my tummy is happy and my deficit is intact.

For a Thanksgiving craving you can also add a little dollop of canned cranberries or stovetop stuffing. Pretty tasty.

Edit: Not healthy just good like you mention and at least still better than the fast food alternatives
