'Tis the Season For Tasty Treats

The holidays are HERE! I wanted to share some healthy-ish recipes to take you from the party at your neighbor’s house to Christmas morning around the tree. We love to eat all the things over the holidays, so I’ve done a round up of some of my favorites! Click the image to take you right to each recipe!

cinnamon roll holiday christmas breakfast

Is there anything better than gooey, delicious cinnamon rolls on Christmas Morning? These are gluten free, and SO yummy. Your whole family will love them!


It’s a tradition in our family to make an egg casserole Christmas morning too. I love how protein packed this option is, just the right amount of cheese and crispy edges, perfection!


gingerbread muffins

I am definitely making these Gingerbread muffins this year. Gluten free and fluffy, these pair perfectly with a hot cup of coffee while the kids open presents!


festive roll ups

The Pioneer Woman does it again with this cute, classic appetizer. These festive pinwheels could be low carb for you too, if you used a low carb tortilla!


pigs in a blanket wreath

OKAYYYY. While this might not be the healthiest appetizer option, who doesn’t LOVE a good pig in a blanket. Make them in wreath from for your Christmas Party and I am one happy girl. YUMMMMMMM


antipasti skewer

These Antipasti Skewers are always a hit at any party. A tasty and filling appetizer that I love to make, this recipe is easy and they look pretty too!


I had a butternut squash soup a few weeks ago that I can’t stop thinking about! I went looking for a recipe for us to try, and this one looks so good. Cozy to serve at any winter party, hearty and filling enough for a main part of the meal, this recipe checks all the boxes.


I love a good Bolognese, partly because it has lots of veggies and my kids never notice! This turkey bolognese is lower in fat than one made with ground beef and is the perfect meal for Christmas Eve dinner. Use Banza or Rice noodles to keep it gluten free if you want!


Holiday Sangria, Christmas Sangria Christmas Cocktails

You know your girl wouldn’t leave you without any fun cocktail recipes for the season! This sangria is so festive, and serves a group. Easy to make ahead of time too!


white chocolate peppermint martini

I want to make this White Peppermint Mocha Martini because it looks so damn pretty. Turns out it’s gorgeous and DELICIOUS! I’m a sucker for a good martini, and this holiday drink doesn’t disappoint!


healthy christmas crack

Eating Bird Food always has the best recipes, and this is no exception. She uses Almond Crackers and a few other healthier substitutes to make this tasty treat!


Time for baking cookies with the kids. and we are going to try these Hot Cocoa Cookies! Of course we will make our traditional sugar cookies too, but these have healthier substitutions and look like hot cocoa in cookie form!

If you want more ideas, I have a December snack guide filled ideas for the kids, yummy holiday treats and of course a cocktail or two! Grab yours below!
