- Gingerbread men
We love eating people. That is, bite-sized people with a perfect balance of crunchy and chewy and a little, spicy zing to keep you on your toes. What’s not to like? Plus, you can pretend you are Lord Farquaad eating Gingerbread Man.
- Hot pot
This versatile and customizable meal includes a burning hot, flavorful broth with all the tofu, napa cabbage and enoki mushrooms you can devour — making you feel like a lucky leprechaun with a pot of gold. If you know us, you know that tofu is the reason for our existence. Add in sauces and green onions, and you’ve got yourself a wondrous mix of flavor.
- Risotto with truffle oil, parmesan cheese and black pepper
This thick, rich, creamy, high-calorie, gut-filling goodness pairs well with any other holiday dish. Topped with truffle oil to make the flavor more decadent and black pepper to add a small kick, this risotto is so amazing it will pop your pants off.
- Pumpkin muffins with walnuts and cream cheese frosting
These muffins are an essential fall recipe. Combine walnuts and cream cheese frosting with a pumpkin base, you’ll need a gym membership because these muffins are so good that you won’t stop.
- French onion soup
It’s required that you drink this from a lionhead bowl. This rich and flavorful soup is one that will warm your belly with a thick layer of cheese and soft bread that’s soaked up the yumminess.
- Fondue (both the cheese and chocolate kind)
It’s self-serve and can fill your heart’s endless desires for cheese and chocolate. A perfect dip for bread, strawberries or bananas, you can keep eating until your heart is content — or until your stomach explodes.
- A really good quiche
Imagine waking up on a holiday to a freshly baked quiche in the morning. Dive into this fluffy, eggy, cheesy and onion-y creation with a flaky, buttery crust, and you’ll be in heaven.
- Lemon cake
This is a direct recreation — dare we say even better version — of the Starbucks lemon loaf Divya makes every year. Soft, fluffy and topped with a crunchy glaze, it is a perfectly homey holiday food that is sure to fill your stomach and your heart. The acidity from the lemon also balances out the sugar, so basically, it’s zero calories.
- Hot chocolate with marshmallows
It’s only good if the hot chocolate is burning your tongue off and topped with a cup of mini marshmallows. However, you’d better use milk to get the complete, comforting effect. Using water in hot chocolate is blasphemy.
- PEPPERMINT BARK !!!
Creamy, sweet and minty — peppermint bark is a perfect marriage of the most Christmassy flavors of all time. Is it even possible to bite into this and not get reminded of some serious holiday nostalgia?
