From festive mashed potatoes and stuffing to dependable bread and crackers to delightful cookies and fruits piled high, December is a terrific month to find satisfaction in saccharides and glee in the glycemic index. This week, your mission is to celebrate carbohydrates — the starchier, the better. Many will tell you there are solid reasons to go easy on the starches and sugars, but if you do indulge, share your carbo-licious foods with Gastropost.

Looking for a bit of magic for that holiday party? Put out a plate of these crackle-top gingerbread date cookies and watch them vanish. Chef Corbin Tomaszeski says Becel® margarine, our mission partner his week, can be a key ingredient when entertaining. “You can use margarine in your baking. It’s a great substitute for butter, but with 80% less saturated fat.” And if another recipe with butter has already made your holiday wish list, consider subbing in Becel® to take advantage of its deliciousness and ease of use. Says Chef Corbin: “Wherever you see a recipe that calls for butter, substitute Becel® for it in the same amount.” For this recipe and many more, visit becel.ca/en/becel/heart-healthy-recipes/. If you use margarine with your recipe this week, or have another bit of magic to add to your holiday dish, let us know by adding the hashtag #holidaymagic to your #gastropost, and we’ll feature some of those in next week’s paper!
