The holiday season is full of magic. These three recipes contain their own little magic to bring ease, health, and deliciousness to your celebrations.
Start by satisfying your sweet tooth with these three-ingredient chocolate cookies. These jewelry pieces are easy to make and very luxurious.

A comforting and satisfying winter staple that’s dairy-free.
These dishes will get you in the holiday spirit without all the hassle. It’s just flavorful and fun.
These treats are a must-have for the holidays. Incredibly easy to make, irresistibly delicious, and full of festive spirit. The texture is just magical, soft and moist, something between a cookie and a chocolate cake. What’s the secret? Just 2 ingredients: Devil’s Food cake mix and pumpkin puree. No eggs or oil, stress-free! Make it even more special by adding your favorite mix-ins like chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or chopped nuts. These cookies bake quickly and are perfect for cookie exchanges, holiday parties, or to enjoy with a hot mug of cocoa.
Bring a taste of Italy to your holiday table with these slow cooker meatballs. Made with ground turkey, breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and seasonings, these tender meatballs are smothered to perfection with your favorite store-bought (or homemade) marinara sauce while the slow cooker does all the work. Serve over pasta for a special family meal, on crusty rolls as a perfect sub for a party, or as a bite-sized appetizer for a holiday gathering. This recipe is sure to please!
Stay cozy this holiday season with a light butternut squash soup. A creamy, comforting classic with a healthy twist. While traditional recipes can be loaded with calories, carbs, and saturated fat, I waved my magic spoon and created a lighter, but just as indulgent version. I added carrots to the butternut squash to maintain its golden color and velvety texture while cutting out carbs. Plus, it doesn’t contain heavy cream or coconut milk, making it the perfect heart-healthy holiday meal.
