Who said holiday food had to be unhealthy? Whip up these tasty (and easy!) recipes to serve some cancer-fighting nutrients at this year's holiday parties.

Dark Bark with Cranberries and Almonds

Baking? Don't miss the chance to use this season's sweetest cancer-fighting ingredient -- dark chocolate.

Research suggests that the antioxidants in dark chocolate help protect the body from cancer. Added bonus: regularly eating small amounts of chocolate may reduce your chances of both heart disease and stroke.

Get our recipe for dark chocolate bark with almonds and cranberries.

Spiced Toasted Almonds
Want to serve up a hefty dose of cancer-fighting vitamin E? Almonds get the job done. And that's not the only good news. Almonds also are rich in magnesium and fiber, which can help control blood cholesterol.
