My family made the switch to clean eating this year and, well, it’s so tempting to cheat during the holidays. But I don’t want to reverse all of the good I’ve done — and the inches I’ve lost — since we made the change. So I’m excited to have a few clean holiday dessert recipes in my back pocket.

The best part? You can’t even tell that these are paleo, vegan, or Whole 30-friendly desserts. They’re just that yummy. So I can bring them to parties and serve them at my own without feeling like a holiday party pooper.
