12 Easy and Healthy Gluten and Dairy-Free Winter Recipes (1)

Until the last of the turkey has been cleared off my plate, I generally can't get in winter mode. I've attempted this post weeks ago and something in me just didn't feel right. Just like I never enjoyed seeing Halloween decorations in July, I feel much the same about pushing things too early. I had to let Fall be Fall but now that we're close to December I can finally dive into some of my favorite winter recipes.

This season typically robs us of heat and most definitely of sunlight, but there is something quiet and still about, which invites rest. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything (well, particularly not now, given this year) and feel even more inclined to spend time, hovering around the stove.

There is something wonderful about the balance warm food offers, especially during the cold winter months. Sure, I've cooked the occasional hamburger on the grill in 20 some degree weather with a flashlight. But it is undeniable that soups, stews, roasted vegetables, and warm drinks are just what's needed on a cold winter day.

So without further ado, let's dive into these dishes! What you'll find in this list of 12 gluten and dairy-free winter recipes, including vegan, paleo, whole 30, and keto options as well. I will list each out for you so you know exactly what you're getting into!
