Think simple, think delicious – and you’ll find all 3 recipes right in the app.
🎁 4. Eat both what makes you feel good – and what you're craving
I always try to stick to the 80/20 mindset: getting in nourishing meals that I know help me feel my best, while also enjoying all the delicious things December has to offer. Because Christmas isn’t about rules – it’s about balance.
And I promise, you can eat chocolate Santas and nourish your body. You really can do both.
In summary
✔️ A little planning = a lot less stress
✔️ It's okay to want both nourishing meals and festive treats
✔️ Let food support you – not stress you out
December is a favorite month for many (including me) – it’s cozy, and usually full-on in every direction. But you know how it goes… in the middle of glögg nights, gift shopping and everything else that comes with December, it’s so easy to lose your routines and forget to fuel up with good energy. So I wanted to share a few simple recipes and tips that save me every December – both on regular weekdays and in between all the festivities.
Festive snacks and quick bites
that make it a little easier to keep your energy up, without spending an hour in the kitchen.
This isn’t some “be good this December” kind of thing – just a bit of inspiration I hope you’ll find useful 🧑🎄✨
My best tips for keeping your energy up (without stress)
🥣 1. Make your breakfast a little more festive
Breakfast is the perfect opportunity to get in both nutrition and that cozy holiday feeling.
Here are a few favorite recipes straight from the app:
🍬 2. Keep festive snacks on hand
I always have a few tasty go-to snacks ready for when my blood sugar dips. In December, I often go for:
Saffron scones with cottage cheese or cheese (love it!)
A crispbread sandwich with Christmas ham and mustard – sounds boring maybe, but it’s
so
good 🙈
Saffron quark with granola
Little things like this help you avoid getting hangry – and as a bonus, you get that cozy holiday flavor in too. A tip: create your own recipes in the app!
🍪 3. Desserts without the stress
I know it can be tempting to “save yourself” for the Christmas treats, but balance is the key that helps us all feel our best.
