Our cookbook of the week is Justine Cooks by Justine Doiron, a viral recipe developer known as Justine Snacks.

Jump to the recipes: crusted sweet potatoes and pepitas, ACV (apple cider vinegar) Brussels sprouts in toasted cornmeal and black pepper chai blondies.

Many people have their holiday traditions locked down. While giving the entire meal an overhaul for Christmas or New Year’s may be nonnegotiable, a fresh sweet treat and a side dish or two alongside established favourites can be a welcome change of pace.
