FunnySpoon: Sassy Cooking Shortcuts: The FunnySpoon Holiday Survival Guide

Now that Thanksgiving is over, it's time to trim the tree and deck the halls. Wait, what? How'd that happen so fast?

Never fear, the FunnySpoon Holiday Survival Guide is here to help. This edition features easy recipes, healthy holiday tips, and simple ideas to get in the holiday spirit. Save your energy for the festivities and leave the planning to us!

Seasonal Eats

You'll make everyone's gift list when you serve SeaPak's Holiday Scampi Tortellini. Not only is it amazingly simple, it's also festive for the holidays with roasted red peppers and fresh spinach tortellini.

For a versatile holiday dish try these scrumptious Mini Crab Cake Sliders from SeaPak. They make a great meal, snack, or party appetizer. So whether you're starving after shopping or have partygoers to feed, these sliders are a must.

Pair up sliders with easy Holiday Spinach Dip and voila - your mirth-making meal is complete.

Healthy Holidays

In December our social calendars are busier, we eat more cookies and party food, and exercise less. Don't let the holidays get the best of you! When planning a meal or browsing an appetizer spread, keep seafood top-of-mind.

Eating seafood twice a week gives your body fabulous health benefits since it's:

High in omega 3's and vitamin D

Low in "bad" cholesterol

A good source of low-fat protein

Get in the Holiday Spirit
Not quite ready to dive into the holiday spirit? Stimulate your senses with these simple merry-mood-makers and ease into the holidays:

Fill your house with that wonderful holiday aroma with easy homemade potpourri.

Enjoy the tastes of the season by adding a splash of egg nog to your morning coffee.

Create a mini wonderland by setting out just one holiday decoration: a candy dish, a tiny tinsel tree, or a glass bowl filled holiday ornaments.
