Healthier Hanukkah Recipes

Gather your loved ones and celebrate Hanukkah with these healthy and delicious recipes.

Hanukkah 2024 starts at nightfall on December 25, 2024, and ends with nightfall on January 2, 2025, beginning on the Hebrew calendar date of 25 Kislev and lasting eight days. There are 8 days full of family, fun, and food! Each evening, families light the menorah, adding one candle per night, accompanied by blessings, prayers, and traditional songs. This meaningful ritual symbolizes hope, perseverance, and the triumph of light over darkness.

In addition to lighting the menorah, Hanukkah is celebrated with delicious food, games, and quality time with loved ones. One of the most popular foods this time of year is potato pancakes or latkes.

Did you know you could switch things up with just about any veggie? From Brussels sprouts to beets, we collected some new takes on this holiday comfort food plus a few other Hanukkah favorites.
