TAKEN FROM OUR THANKSGIVING DAILY DIGEST AND MODIFIED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE HOLIDAYS:
TIP OF THE DAY: EARN YOUR HOLIDAY MEAL!
Even though there is an opportunity for this year’s holiday meals to be your healthiest, we still know there is a tendency to overeat and also to forget about your physical well-being. So, if you haven’t done it already, plan a Christmas Eve morning “walk/run” with your family or neighbors so you can burn some calories before you eat and also start the holiday feeling accomplished!
By no means must you stick to the menu provided below. We have simply gathered some of our favorite compliant recipes in hopes that it will save you time (time researching, not time cooking!) and worry that you might not be eating something within our clean guidelines. The degree of difficulty in making these meals ranges from easy to gourmet, so for that reason we have “Pinned” several different recipes for you on our Modified Holiday Challenge Pinterest Board and Drinks Board for you to choose from!
Now, let’s get to the grub.
