Holiday Recipes

As the end of the year approaches, try these healthy holiday recipes. You'll find main dishes, appetizers, sides and desserts!

Herb-Roasted Turkey

Looking for the perfect turkey recipe to use on Thanksgiving Day? Look no further!

Curried Sweet Potato Dip with Crunchy Pita Chips

Your guests will love this unique and tasty dip. To cut the carb content of this recipe even more, use raw veggies to dip instead of pita chips.

Spinach Artichoke Dip

This low-carb appetizer is a much lighter version of traditional spinach artichoke dip, but it still packs in great flavor. Whip this dip up in no time for your next party.

Cranberry Pork Roast over Noodles

This super-easy, tender roast cooks during the day in your slow-cooker. All you need is 5 minutes in the morning to load up the crock pot, and then 20 minutes in the evening to cook up the pasta and veggies that go with it!

Curried Roasted Beet Hummus

This unique version of hummus can be made with red beets as well and should be served with crudite or whole grain pita chips. If you like it spicy, add 1/4 teaspoon (or more depending on how spicy you want it) of ground cayenne pepper to the ingredients when blending.

Best Roasted Chicken

Prepare this Best Roasted Chicken recipe ahead of time. After cooking, place the broth in the refrigerator overnight and the fat will rise to the top and solidify slightly. Then you can just scrape the fat off the top and have just the broth leftover to serve with the skinless chicken.

Baked Cauliflower Puree

To make this Baked Cauliflower Puree, use a hand blender, which is a great way to save time and dishes. You can puree the food right in the pan it was cooked in and clean up is a breeze. It’s a must-have kitchen gadget.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts

These Roasted Brussels Sprouts are low in calories and in carbohydrate, which means they may be helpful for controlling blood glucose. Roasting helps to enhance their flavor.

Sweet Potato Soufflé

Looking for a new sweet potato dish to serve your guests this holiday season? This Sweet Potato Soufflé is just the ticket!

Sweet and Savory Baked Apples

Serve these Sweet and Savory Baked Apples as a side dish or as an appetizer with whole grain crackers.
