Desserts are my favorite part of holiday dinners.  There’s so many different flavors, textures, and colors… and I’m a big fan of the sweetness.  But since I’ve begun treating my autoimmune disease, I have to stay away from sugar for the most part.  it’s not fun, and I really miss eating sweets during this time of year.  So for those of us that can’t have gluten and traditional sugar in our desserts, here’s a fantastic roundup of healthy holiday desserts that will have us feeling like we aren’t missing out at all!

One of my favorite go-to desserts year round are the sugar free no bake cookies.  They are so easy, full of healthy fats, and incredibly delicious!  My boys love them, and they tend to disappear quickly when I make them.  They’re just the right combination of fudgy and sweet, and they melt in your mouth.  

This time of year, cookies just seem to go with everything. I love sweets, but I don't want to eat sugar constantly. These sugar free no bake cookies are not only easy, but they've got no refined sugar. They are DELISH!

A deliciously creamy cookie that’s fudgy and sweet, and packed with protein and healthy fats. It has no sugar or gluten, but tons of flavor  and will be sure to be a hit with everyone at your holiday get together!

With Halloween right around the corner, there seems to be candy at every turn at the store. While candy is ok occasionally, I'd prefer my kids not eat too much. So here's some ideas for Halloween candy alternatives!
Many people think that it's a lot of work to grow organic vegetable gardens; and while they are correct, it's also fun and fulfilling work that comes with great rewards.
We all know how healthy soups can be, but what nobody ever seems to mention is how boring they can be. Often times, people miss eating creamy soups, and who wouldn't?  They are thick and delicious. I made this loaded baked "potato" cauliflower bisque because I was missing those creamy soups too.
Anyone who isn't a "fit mom" according to the generally accepted standards of society isn't trying enough. They're being lazy. They're not eating healthy enough. They're eating too much. They're making excuses. Sorry, but I'm calling bull.
Kefir is all the rage these days, being found in health food stores across the country and countless recipes showing up on Pinterest.  If you're new to alternative health, kefir is a probiotic-rich fermented beverage, made with kefir grains and milk. It contains much more healthy bacteria for our digestive systems than yogurt, and is much simpler to make.  The health benefits of kefir are huge.  Focusing on gut health is a primary concern of many, as we become more aware of the damage that the Standard American Diet is doing to our bodies.
Sometimes you want to host a huge cook-off… and sometimes you just want to throw whatever’s in your kitchen into a pan, serve it up to the family and hope for the best. This chipotle black bean quinoa soup is definitely for the latter.  It’s quick, it’s easy, but boy it’s tasty. Furthermore, it’s healthy and satisfying enough to eat without any need to feel guilty. Plus, it's gluten-free!

  1. This is EXACTLY what our family needs to get our nutrition back on track! We’d been eating mostly whole food/plant-based until school started, and then it was just sugar all the time. Thanks for the ideas!

  12. These are great recipe ideas. I am GF (thanks to my genetics) and we do not eat a lot of processed foods or sugar. I love the variety of recipes you shared.
