Bringing a Holistic Holiday Table to Life

By

One of the questions I hear many times from friends, family, and our community is:

“How do I enjoy the holidays and still feel good in my body?”

I don’t believe the answer is restriction or white-knuckling your way through December. I think it’s intention, and having options that feel both comforting and genuinely nourishing.

That’s why all of us here at Modern Holistic Health created The Holistic Holiday Table recipe book to give you a way to say yes to celebration, flavor, and tradition, without saying no to your body or your health. Inside, you’ll find recipes that are gluten free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free (or easily adaptable), designed to be anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense, and will be the favorite dishes at any holiday gathering (without anyone even knowing it’s ‘healthy’!)

Think:

  • Comforting breakfasts & brunches like Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes and Pumpkin Pie Chia Pudding that keep your blood sugar steadier than the usual pastry-and-coffee rush.  
  • Body warming soups and mains like Creamy Parsnip & Apple Soup, Bison Sweet Potato Chili, and Greg’s Herb & Garlic Roasted Leg of Lamb with Honey-Thyme Root Vegetables, hearty, grounding, and designed with winter in mind.  
  • Festive sides such as Maple-Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Pecans or Sweet Potato Mash with Coconut Milk & Nutmeg that quietly support detox pathways and nervous system balance while everyone just tastes “yum.”
  • Treats & mocktails like Paleo Gingersnap Cookies, Almond Butter Fudge Squares, Flourless Dark Chocolate Cake, Cranberry Rosemary Mocktails, and Sparkling Pomegranate Mocktails, desserts and drinks that feel indulgent but are created with clean ingredients and your hormones, gut, and brain in mind.

In other words, it’s comfort food, but upgraded, designed to love you back.

Three Simple Ways to Use This eBook All Season Long

You don’t have to overhaul your entire menu. Start small and let these recipes quietly support you:

Choose one “anchor” recipe each week.

Maybe it’s a big pot of Kale & Butternut Squash Soup, Bison Sweet Potato Chili, or a batch of Harvest Chicken Hash for breakfast. When you have at least one grounding, nutrient-dense option ready to go, you’re less likely to end up in the “cookies and coffee for dinner” loop.

Upgrade one piece of every gathering.

Bring Maple-Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Sweet Potato Mash with Coconut Milk, or Stuffed Acorn Squash as your contribution.

Or swap the usual heavy dessert for Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies or Dark Chocolate Fruit Bark with Sea Salt.

You still get to participate, but you know there will be something on the table that your body will thank you for later. 

Create a “mocktail + treat” ritual instead of another glass of wine.

Try a Cranberry Rosemary Mocktail or Sparkling Pomegranate Mocktail with Rosemary alongside a couple of Chai-Spiced Energy Balls or Rosita’s Date Boats. You’ll still feel festive, but you’ll sleep better, recover faster, and keep your nervous system more regulated.  

Your Invitation

This season, I don’t want you to feel like you have to choose between joy and health. I want your table to feel like an extension of your healing: warm, beautiful, satisfying, and aligned with what your body actually needs.

That’s exactly what The Holistic Holiday Table was created for.
