Welcome Holiday Guests in Style

Simpler is best

There's no reason to stuff your guests at holiday time. Save that for the turkey! Instead of two kinds of potatoes, serve more vegetables or even wild rice. Begin with a soup— squash, roasted beet, potato, leek or broccoli. Brush the turkey with olive oil instead of butter. Try roasted winter veggies brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with herbs. Serve an interesting salad of microgreens scattered with mango or pomegranate. Then let everyone go for a walk together, or organize a caroling expedition.
