When I woke up this morning and looked at the date on my phone, I was shocked. I don't know how this month flew by. I can't believe that Christmas is only a few days away. How did I not realize this? At any rate, it's crunch time. I had all kinds of grand ideas for what I would make for Christmas, but now realize that I have only a few short days to cook, finish shopping and start wrapping. Yikes!

Here are some great holiday food ideas from our friends at the Ellen Show. There are links below to dishes mentioned in the video as well as some others that would be great for the holiday season. I wish you all luck in wrapping up your holiday preparations! Hopefully you are all done - unlike me!

Holiday Breakfast Casserole (If you make this, I recommend using shredded Daiya Cheese, available at Kroger and health food stores like Whole Foods Market)

Potato Latkes
