No-Bake Lemon Ricotta Cheesecake Bars
These no-bake lemon ricotta cheesecake bars get an extra creamy boost from the addition of ricotta cheese. Make sure to take the time to drain the ricotta before adding it to the filling. The pistachios in the crust and garnish, are optional; but totally recommended. You can use almonds, or simply use more graham cracker crumbs instead.

Roasted Butternut Squash Soup with Apples and Bacon
I created this roasted butternut squash soup with apples and bacon recipe on Christmas Eve, which was a huge hit. The caramelized roasted squash gives the soup extra depth of flavor. This soup has a very creamy consistency but is completely dairy-free except for the optional garnish of sour cream (I did this on purpose due to a guest who was allergic to dairy). It is also extremely healthy. Don't shy away from the curry powder; it gives the soup extra flavor. Feel free to play around with the amount of carrot, onion, celery, or garlic to your taste. This soup can be made the day before and reheated.
