The Food
Tis’ the season for a party or two or three. Heading to a potluck anytime soon? Oh, do I have recommendations for you! One of my first rules for bringing a dish is to bring a healthy, scrumptious salad. This will increase your odds of having something nourishing to eat amongst the richest of dishes.
Make ahead salads such as the Kale & Pomegranate Salad or the Harvest Rice Salad are easy to take on the go with no last minute fuss other than a quick toss.
An alternative to the traditional veggies and dip are Roasted Veggies & Dip which include Beet Crisps, Pan Roasted Carrots, and Sweet Potato Fries to serve with an easy Yogurt Ranch Dip.
For a twist on the classic Shrimp Cocktail use the Pomegranate Cocktail Sauce instead.
Continue the dipping fun, with a couple of rich spreads including the Hazelnut Squash Dip and Mushroom Chicken Pate. Mix & match the cracker options with the Pecan Crackers or Fennel Crackers. Make each combo a complete meal by pairing it with the Avocado & Pear Salad.
While any of these recipes come together for easy dinners during the busy holiday season, the Chicken Parmesan with Winter Puttanesca Spaghetti Squash Spaghetti is a full meal of nourishing comfort food that is perfect for just your family or a small gathering.
Meanwhile, the Roots, Shoots & Lentils will sustain you with several meals throughout the week, especially when paired with a comforting bowl of Cheddar Broccoli Soup.
For breakfast, take extra broccoli from the soup and sauté it with some greens for the Broccoli-Chard Scramble.
Finally, make a gigantic batch of sassy Red Velvet Granola to bag up for gifts; the essence of chocolate and beets are sure to make loved ones smile.
Cook seasonally. Eat consciously. Live well,
