What to cook in December: With winter officially on our doorstep it’s time to embrace not just festive food but hearty dishes that warm our bones.
As we’re busying away preparing for Christmas and all it entails at home and at work, food needs to be simple but nourishing. Sweet treats with hints of citrus and seasonal spices. Whether you’re roasting, slow-cooking, simmering or baking, what to cook in December is all about nourishment and warmth.
We have a combination of healthy and fresh alongside decadent and comforting. We’ve got make ahead breakfasts and light, easy lunches. There’s also hearty and warming soups, simple but delicious dinners and some of my favourite cosy and comforting winter spice baking recipes!
