healthy holiday recipe

Though you can expect a steady stream of NEW recipes hitting the blog each week during this holiday season, I wanted to offer up a quick summary of the healthy holiday recipes available for on my blog (free), in my printed ‘Fed & Fit’ book, and in my downloadable ‘Cassy Joy’s Holiday Feast’ eBook!

In addition to my 190-recipe printed ‘Fed & Fit’ book, my ‘Cassy Joy’s Holiday Feast’ eBook is a true wealth of recipes (51, to be exact) if you’re looking for even more healthy holiday recipe inspiration and guidance. We went the extra mile with this eBook by also providing meal plans (or menu suggestions) for each holiday for the AIP, low-FODMAP, low-carb, 21-Day Sugar Detox, and what I call the “Fed & Fit Decadence” (an indulgent, but Paleo approach). Every meal plan is accompanied by a grocery shopping list and a “what to make when” guide so that you can streamline your meal-prep efforts by leaning on my suggestions for which components are ideal to make the day before, morning of, and just before guests arrive. I designed this Holiday Feast eBook to help make a healthy holiday recipe based table as approachable, intuitive, and delicious as possible! I hope you enjoy it.
