PLEASE SHARE WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS:

Every family has their holiday traditions. You may wake to the same holiday breakfast, make the same eggnog recipe, or roast the same thing for dinner each year. Tradition often comes in the form of treats and eats. And treats and eats can really make it feel like the holiday season.

But what if your family’s old traditions don’t correspond with the ways in which you’re trying to be healthier now? Well, you rule the holiday roost. You can let your traditions — treats and all — evolve to fit your current lifestyle.

Luckily, GundryMD has been given the gift of fabulous lectin-free recipes from a GundryMD superfan. Of course, these lovely recipes are best when shared with you.

Check out these sweet holiday recipe ideas.
