I will try to offer you to try delicious, healthy, and easy to prepare holiday foods, which will well complement the traditional meal and give the celebration new taste nuances. At the holiday roast, try a sweet and sour salad, make rye bread truffles quickly and easily for dessert, but delight your loved ones with a light breakfast on New Year's morning! #### Green winter salad with pomegranates and sweet and sour sauce. **Ingredients** 200 g of fresh spinach leaves (or any other lettuce leaf) 1 red pepper 1 avocado 1 small sweet and sour, juicy apple or 1 pear half a pomegranate handful of nuts (walnuts, pecans or almonds) **For the sauce:** 3 tbsp. olive oil 1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar 2 tbsp. lemon juice 1 tbsp. honey salt and pepper to taste **Pagatavošana** Peppers, apples or pears (you can take both) and avocado cleaned and cut into slices, chopped nuts, cleaned pomegranate seeds. In a large bowl, mix all the sauce ingredients, add lettuce, fruit, half of the chopped nuts and pomegranate seeds. Arrange the salad on a plate, sprinkle with the remaining nuts and pomegranate seeds. **Rye bread truffles Ingredients** 300 g of rye bread with fruit (without crust) 50 g of raisins 50 g of dried cranberries 50 g unsalted, roasted peanuts 50 g of hazelnuts 2 tbsp. honey 150 g of dark chocolate **Preparation** Fruit bread is cut into pieces and together with the other ingredients put in a food processor or blender. Grind everything until a homogeneous and sticky mass is formed (some large pieces of nuts and dried fruit may remain). From the resulting mass form small candy-sized balls, which are placed in the freezer for 30 minutes. Melt the chocolate in a water bath or microwave oven in a narrow, vertical container (such as a cup or glass) and cool slightly. Take out the frozen candies from the freezer, with a chopstick or a small fork drop in melted chocolate. As the candy mass is cold, the chocolate hardens quickly. Finished truffles are decorated with chopped cranberries, raisins or nuts. Sweets can be stored both in the refrigerator and at room temperature. The taste of these candies is similar to the favorite Latvian sweets "Serenade", and they are very quick and easy to prepare. **Hot New Year's morning bread Ingredients** 1 loaf of ciabattas or wholemeal bread (any other bread is also suitable) 150 g of white cheese 1.5 tbsp. melted butter 1 tbsp. brown sugar 1 handful of dried cranberries 1 handful of pecans/walnuts **Preparation** Preheat the oven to 180 ° C. The loaf of bread is carefully cut into ~ 1.5 cm wide pieces - so that the bread is not cut into pieces. Place aluminum foil in the pan (large enough to cover the whole loaf of bread later) and place it on the bread. Cut the cheese into thin pieces, place a piece of cheese at each bread slice, arrange the rest of the cheese on top of the loaf. In a bowl, mix the melted butter, cranberries, nuts and brown sugar. Transfer this mixture to a loaf of bread. Cover the bread with foil, bake in the oven for 10 minutes, then open the foil and bake for another 5-7 minutes to brown the crust. So for today, that's all thanks for reading and Bon appetite!
