From French Hens to Figgy Pudding, Candy Canes to Sugar Plums, Christmas carols are filled with festive foods. When enjoyed in moderation, even the most decadent recipe can be part of a healthy holiday celebration. Be sure to eat slowly and savor every bite of your holiday feast.
Using a little creative license, enjoy a song-inspired family meal of “Three French Rock Cornish Game Hens, in a Ginger Almond Pears Tree with Greek Yogurt Cheesecake with Ouzo Poached Fig-gy Pudding.”
Other festive recipes to enjoy this week include Easy Bread Pudding, Filet Mignon with Peppercorn-Orange Sauce, Low-Fat Eggnog and even Italian Fudge Filled Cookies to set out with milk for Santa.
