Each year, when I make my holiday gift list, I aim to meet a set of criteria. Offerings that are thoughtful, personal, and useful are amongst the most important to me. I have generally found that homemade gifts are more appreciated than things I can find in mass quantities at any big box store. Small-batch DIY gifts also allow customization, making them personalized for your beloved recipient. It can also help to keep waste out of landfills.

Here are some of my favorite recipe ideas that hail from a variety of different masterminds on the Mountain Rose Herbs team. These team members bring unique expertise to the arts of cooking, baking, natural body care, or aromatherapy and translate their craftsmanship into the wide variety of expertly crafted recipes on this gift list. I hope this helps to inspire some fun and healthful gift-giving!
