21 Heavenly Healthy Holiday Recipes

December 23, 2015

21 Heavenly Healthy Holiday RecipesThose of you who have been following my blog already know about my little “Heavenly Healthy Christmas” series, where I shared some delicious and healthy Christmas recipes with you. Even though my blog is only a few months old, I was already able to pile up many delicious recipes that will be perfect for the upcoming Holidays, so I thought I’d post a little medley of my favorite ones.
There are also a few words that I needed to say before I am wishing you all a Merry Christmas. This past year has been such a eventful and exciting year for me. I’ve started this blog during some shaky months and I would have never imagined that I’d receive so much support from all of you. Yes, if you are reading this, then I am directly talking to you. Reading your comments or personal emails makes me beyond happy. Every time I read some of your kind and inspiring words, I get the chills, and I am deeply, deeply thankful to everyone who reads this blog, cooks my recipes or simply likes to look at my pictures. I am so excited to continue this blog in 2016 – there will be so many delicious and healthy new recipes, maybe a bit more fitness articles or whatever else comes to my mind. If you have any suggestions for recipes that you’d like to see healthified, if you have any critique or simply want to talk to me, feel free to email me at heavenlynnhealthy@gmail.com or just leave me a comment below. I love to hear from you!

Now, I am wishing you all a Merry Christmas!

    Everything looks amazing Lynn, this is the most bright beautiful festive feast! I know it’s after christmas now, but still such a great roundup for any and all times of year! I’m especially loving the cauliflower lasagna idea, that is so creative I love using cauliflower in new ways. I just pinned so many things, your recipes are fantastic 🙂

    Hi Lynn! I love this collection of healthy festive recipes:) My dad made a variation of your lentil loaf (and some lingonberry sauce, which is kind of similar to cranberry sauce). It tasted AMAZING! Something I wouldn’t mind eating every week during the winter season – so comforting<3 Looking forward to next year and your new posts! xoxo

      Tiina – thank you so much for stopping by! I’m so glad you dad liked the variation of my lentil loaf – how cool is it that he likes to cook healthy! It’s always a hassle to cook for mine (he likes everything vegan and vegetarian as long as it has sausage in it ;-)).
      Wishing you a very happy start into the next year!
      xx Lynn
