    Festive Holiday Recipes

    Elise Tries to Cook favorite holiday recipes to add to your festive table. More fresh ingredients and less time cooking so you can enjoy the time with friends and family!

    Clean recipes for side dishes like a Kale Salad or Roasted Carrots. Or looking for a main dish like my favorite Pork Tenderloin with Fig Balsamic Glaze that's SO simple and perfect for any holiday table!

    If you're looking for a festive sip, there's non-alcoholic drinks like Vegan Eggnog and Oat Milk Hot Chocolate. For spiked holiday cocktails, go for classics like Red Wine Sangria, or unique festive cocktails like an Eggnog White Russian or Holiday Prosecco Cocktail.
