the MERRY AND BRIGHT (AND EASY) issue

The holiday season is almost here. And that means warm sweaters, cozy fires and new ways to make memories. And it also means an incredible menu filled with homemade delights cooked with the best ingredient: love. During this time of the year, joy has a seat at our table and we couldn’t be happier.

In this issue of Big Y Dig In Magazine, we want to give you the solutions that let you serve something impressive and still give you more time with what’s important: the freedom to make the most of your time with the ones you love. For instance, we’ll show you how to put a delicious holiday meal on the table with just a few ingredients. You’ll find easy and delicious recipes for baked goods you’ll be proud to give and simple recipes for those “in-between holiday” meals. We’ll also shine a light on Hanukkah and its wonderful traditions.

So, grab a cup of joe or hot chocolate, pull up a chair and get comfy-the memories we’re about to make will last a lifetime. Have a wonderful holiday season from our family to yours.
