Make a super-rich, extra-flavorful poultry stock that you can use to add a ton of savory flavor to dishes without adding any extra fat.

Make a basic chicken stock, but add the turkey neck that comes inside your turkey to the chicken bones. When it's done, simmer it on the stove until it's reduced by half. This makes it extra flavorful.

Use that extra-rich stock in your favorite stuffing recipe, and cut the amount of butter or fat in half.

The fortified stock has a lot of flavor, so the finished stuffing won't feel any less decadent or savory, and there will still be enough fat in the stuffing to keep it from drying out.

Slow-roast your sweet potatoes so that they're maximally sweet without any added sugar.

Cut 3 lbs sweet potatoes into 3/4-inch pieces, toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and a little salt and pepper, and spread onto 2 baking sheets. Roast in a 325°F oven until the undersides are browned, about 40 minutes. Flip the sweet potatoes and roast until they're soft throughout and both sides are nicely browned, about 40 minutes more.
