Keto, Diabetes, & Health-Conscious Foods for the Holidays

Your mouth is already watering for your favorite pumpkin pie, turkey, dressing, and Christmas ham. But then, you remember that you’re on the keto diet this year. And suddenly, your holiday cheer takes a nosedive.

Not so fast, though. Just because Turkey Day and a Christmas feast are around the corner doesn’t mean you have to eat high-calorie meals and treats that will go to your waistline. If you’re on the keto diet, you’re health conscious, or you’re trying to manage your weight or blood sugar levels, a wide variety of yummy yet healthy holiday meals and low-sugar dessert recipes are your best bet! 

What’s more, if any of these recipes end up being too sour or tart for you, you can fix that with the MiraBurst Miracle Berry. These taste-modifying berries will activate your taste buds and trick your mind to temporarily perceive any tart or sour drink, food, or fruit as sweet without any added sugar or sweetener.

Let’s take a look at the top Miracle Berry food pairings worth trying this holiday season.

Healthy Holiday Dessert Recipes Include Cranberries

No fruits scream the holidays like cranberries do. Thanks to their uniquely tart flavor and festive red color, these fruits are an ideal addition to any holiday meal. Plus, if you’re trying to eat mindfully this holiday season, you’ll appreciate the fact that these keto-friendly berries are loaded with copper, fiber, and vitamin C—nutrients that improve your immune system and digestion.

If you’re looking for healthy holidaydessert recipes, consider making a sugar-free cranberry sauce! Simply mix a cup of cranberries with a cup of water and a teaspoon of lemon zest and boil until the sauce is popping.

If the tartness of cranberries and lemon zest is not tasty to you, simply use MiraBurst Miracle Berries to activate your taste buds before consuming it to turn the tart taste to a sweet one.

Raspberries

If you’re looking for another one of the top healthy holidaydessert recipes, consider combining raspberries with other keto-friendly berries, such as blueberries and strawberries, to bake a tasty berry pie. Simply mix a pound of fresh mixed berries and use it as filling for your favorite pie recipe! You can also decide to use raspberries as a topping for yogurt or add fresh raspberries to your holiday cocktails and mocktails. The options for adding raspberries to your desserts are endless!

Raspberries are one of the top Miracle Berry food pairings filled with vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, which make them an excellent addition to every holiday plate.

Before you dive into your holiday treats, be sure to take a MiraBurst Miracle Berry first to turn the potentially tart taste of raspberries sweet.

Pomegranate

MiraBurst Miracle Berries and pomegranates are another one of the top Miracle Berry food pairings that you and your guests will love this holiday season. The sour taste of pomegranate can easily be made sweet with the Miracle Berry. As a result, you can easily enjoy the many health benefits of this keto-friendly fruit.

For the best healthy holidaydessert recipes, consider adding some juice from a pomegranate to some sparkling water to create a refreshing and light mocktail. To further satisfy your sweet tooth in a healthy way, mix pomegranate seeds with low sugar yogurt for you and your guests.

Don’t forget to use your MiraBurst Miracle Berry to ensure a delicious dessert and meal with even the tartest pomegranate seeds.

Christmas Salad Featuring a Citrus Vinaigrette

Finally, round out your Thanksgiving and Christmas meal with this crispy, health-conscious salad. The salad is one of the best healthy holiday meals because it’s easy to make. Simply mix lettuce with pomegranate arils, juicy oranges, and crunchy pistachios. Then, top off the mix with goat cheese and some champagne vinaigrette (the light version). The MiraBurst Miracle Berry will make the tangy pomegranate and orange flavors taste sweet in a jiffy.
