For many, adapting holiday favorites for guests can be a daunting task. Luckily we've been doing it for years and can hopefully help a bit.
We've compiled some of our favorite holiday recipes for Thanskgiving, Christmas, and other gatherings through the end of the year (although the majority of these can be enjoyed year-round). There are adaptations for gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and combos of all. Happy bellies all around!

Well with that fresh basil calling us from our backyard…pesto it was! I love the freshness of the basil and the sharpness of the garlic. To me pesto isn’t one of those heavier pastas. It’s bright and light, yet filling.
With LeBraun loving creamier pastas we decided to mix it up by adding avocados to the traditional pesto recipe and the result was an indulgent (without being too rich), creamy, fresh dinner! Mmm!

Each crispy, rolled flauta is filled with a southwestern savory combination of spices, vegetables, and of course meaty jackfruit! And each bite packs a flavor punch finished with bright, rich toppings…how do you say, “I’ll take 20 more,” in Spanish?

A savory 20-min one-pan Meatless Monday meal! The Asian-inspired sauce is a punch of flavor while the crisp leaves and water chestnuts adds a cool, fresh crunch. Yin and yang if you will.

Pasta is an ultimate comfort food. It always has been and will be. It’s there when you need it (or simply forgot to go to the store that week…) I love this one because it combines a couple of my favorite vegan recipes into one. Plus it’s pasta…so yeah!

A great latke should have a crispy, golden outside and soft, savory center. Mmm! This version is classic, simple, and humble. No fancy ingredients here, just wholesome ingredients you probably already have in your pantry.

There’s something special about chicken noodle soup. It’s the perfect comfort food for every situation. Whether your sick…or had a bad day…or are chilly, chicken noodle soup will always and has always been there for you.
LeBraun know that if I so much as sniffle during the day, we’re having chicken noodle soup for dinner. But since it’s still World Vegan Month, today we enjoyed big ole bowls of Gluten-Free, Vegan Chicken-less Noodle Soup!

You knew we’d be craving pineapple after 3 weeks in Hawaii, and we couldn’t resist adding some to one of our Labor Day favorites. The jerk seasoning gives the shrimp a hot kick, while the sweet pineapple juices cool your taste buds back down.

I LOVE tofu! It’s so, so, so versatile! It can be prepared in so many different ways, lending itself to different flavors and textures. Savory and crispy. Smooth and sweet. It can be the “meat” of a meal...

To me, poutine (pronounced poo-teen) is the purest Canadian comfort food. Rich, warm brown gravy coating each freshly made, crispy fry, then just for good measure topped with chunks of melty, gooey cheese. It’s the ultimate bowl of savory, messy goodness!

For a date night dinner is there any reasons to look further than pasta? Italian food is super romantic, pairs well with wine, is filling, generally not too much work. The best ROI if you will.
