1 C mashed potatoes……………………. 300
1 C stuffing………………………………
….. 400
3 to 4 ladles of gravy…………………….. 300
3/4 C candied sweet potatoes………… 300
1/2 C green bean casserole…………… 225
1/2 C cranberry sauce…………………… 200
1/2 C gelatin with fruit……………………. 120

Yikes! And that’s just dinner. Throw in a couple of mixed drinks with some cheese and crackers beforehand, a glass of wine with the meal, coffee with cream and sugar afterward…and you’re pushing 3500, easily.
