You can enjoy holiday sweets without any of the guilt. Here are 10 Healthy Holiday Sweets... that are actually good for you!
Hi guys!
I'm all for enjoying yourself at the holidays. I'll have a full-fat peppermint mocha and make and eat my Grandmother's classic Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe without a second thought. This post is in no way trying to keep you away from enjoying those treats.
However, I don't eat that kind of stuff every day. Most of the time I eat clean, healthy food that makes me feel good. These recipes are every day holiday treats that not only do you not have to feel guilty about, they are actually good for you!
Enjoy these healthy holiday sweets.
