This is the time when you can awe your guests with good quality, fresh seasonal produce. Salads make the ultimate and delicious side salad and are a vegetarian’s dream!
You can sprinkle on cranberries or chestnuts for that added Christmas feel. Fresh chestnuts must always be cooked before use and should never be eaten raw.
To cook them, you can first remove the chestnuts from their skins by either boiling or roasting them. For both options, you can first make a small incision in the skin.
Once cooked, peel off the tough shell and the papery thin skin underneath. Peel the nuts whilst hot (as it’s impossible to peel a cold chestnut!) to ensure the complete removal of the inner brown furry skin, called the ‘tan’, which is bitter.

For a lighter take on regular potato mash, try using cauliflower instead. Simply steam four cups of cauliflower florets until very tender, drain, and add ¼ cup milk and 1 tbsp olive oil.
Use a hand masher (or for super tender mash, use a hand blender). Add more milk as needed until you reach the desired consistency.
An option to this dish could be to sprinkle some grated cheese on the top and grill in a moderate oven until the cheese is golden brown.
There are many other healthy side options here.
These desserts could be prepped the day before.
