Holiday hummus

Want a cute and yummy substantial snack to hold your guests over for dinner? Spread some green avocado hummus on a piece of pita bread cut into a triangle. Top it with veggies of your choice as ornaments (tomatoes taste amaze) and stick a pretzel at the bottom for a tree stump. These pita trees will be a total hit so make sure you have two platters—after all, you’re going to want some leftovers later!

Grinchy grapes

No one will feel like a Grinch after they devour these cute treats! Cut the top of a strawberry off and slide it on a skewer. Then add a slice of banana followed by a grape. Top the strawberry with a mini marshmallow and your mini edible Grinches will definitely steal the snack spotlight this Christmas.

Do you want to build a snowman?

Normal cheese platters are so "blah". Spice up your Christmas party with snowman cheese cubes (doesn’t it already sound like more fun?). Slide three white cheese cubes onto a toothpick and poke pretzel sticks into the side of the middle cheese cube as arms. Don’t forget Frosty’s hat! Cut a grape in hat and connect it to the top cheese cube with another toothpick. Finish it off by drawing a face using your fave sauce and you’re sure to have the cutest cheese platter at the party.

Jolly Jell-O

Let’s be honest, Jell-O isn’t the most exciting of desserts, but when you’re trying to eat clean, it’s a go-to for many. This year, give it plenty of holiday cheer by making candy cane inspired Jell-O cups! Alternate layers of red Jell-O and lite or fat-free cool whip in a clear plastic cup. Top off the decorative dish with a scoop of lite or fat-free cool whip, and you’ll have a dessert so good, everyone will think Paula Dean made it.
