This year, I also substituted maple sugar in recipes instead of refine sugar because it’s much lower on the glycemic index and offers the same sweet taste and texture of sugar. Of course, we will be drinking lots of water with the salty ham and, my personal favorite, a nice glass of red wine 🙂 Wishing you many happy blessings this holiday season!
