The holidays are just around the corner. When it comes to carving a path through all those gingerbread cookies and heavy dishes that you know will appear in your kitchen like out of thin air, we’ve got you covered with these three healthy recipes that are ideal to make on-the-go. Get outside, make a day of exploring and then get cozy with these savory and sweet suggestions that will add a little balance to your holiday eating routine, but still pack a ton of flavor.
