It’s natural to have a craving for all the holiday comfort foods you’ve enjoyed over the years, especially since many families have long-standing traditions based around certain dishes. However, it can lead some patients to fall into a negative attitude by focusing only on all the foods they can’t eat. With that in mind, Gerson Institute has created a short holiday-themed e-book which focuses more on what someone following the Gerson Therapy CAN eat. This recipe comes from that e-book.
