Last Minute Holiday Recipes

The countdown to Christmas is on with only 13 days to go!

Here are a few of my favorite red and green recipes

for your holiday menus

Holiday Salad with Bacon Wrapped Asparagus Croutons

This sweet and savory salad is truly a holiday celebration in a bowl!

Fresh strawberries, juicy oranges, buttery almonds

on a bed of fresh spinach and romaine lettuce

all topped with bacon wrapped asparagus “croutons”

The fresh greens and red berries make this salad

perfect for Christmas or any festive celebration

Holiday Veggie Tart

This tart makes a pretty presentation and

it is quick to assemble

It’s also a nice diversion from heavy holiday foods


Spinach & Bacon Spirals are a wonderful party food

or a tasty lunch

Hot & Cheesy Baked BLT Dip

Enjoy the same flavors of a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich

in this creamy cheesy dip

Savory Holiday Bread Pudding isn’t red and green,

but it is full of delicious holiday cranberries

I hope I’ve given you some last minute inspiration!

Ho Ho Ho!
