Why would anyone want to be Whole30 over the holidays? Giving up cookies and peppermint bark and truffles and holiday treats? That is blasphemous!

But hear me out. I’m sure the majority of you are probably not going to be officially on Whole30 over the holidays. And that’s ok. But what if… you ate whole foods and enjoyed recipes that are made with real ingredients… so that you didn’t feel guilty about a little indulgence? Balance is a good thing.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not here to tell you to cheat on Whole30. If you are on Whole30, by all means, commit to it.

But if you are like me and want to live the Whole30 lifestyle and enjoy delicious whole foods recipes, I’ve got you covered. Whether or not you are officially on Whole30. And zero judgment. So let’s enjoy these 30 Whole30 Christmas recipes!

 

Whole30 Protocol

 

We’ll begin by assuming you’ve done all of your research and know exactly what you’re getting into and all of the “rules” of the Whole30 diet. That you are here because already know the ins and outs and are looking for trusted recipes that you can make.

That being said, please note the following:

1. All recipes have been thoroughly researched, vetted, and cross-checked against the official Whole30 approved and compliant foods. However… any time you are following a specific nutrition protocol, ALWAYS check the ingredients for yourself.

2. There are a few recipes that have optional ingredients to remove to be Whole30 compliant.

3. Even if the recipe title or description does not say Whole30, the ingredients are what we looked at to make the determination.

4. All recipes are obviously gluten-free, and there are plenty of vegan options as well.
