Whole Foods's 2021 Holiday Menu Is Stacked With Tasty Options

Published on Dec 8, 2021 at 12:50 PM

When it comes to planning Christmas dinner, Whole Foods Market has our backs. The supermarket is known for its delicious holiday-meal offerings, and this season's menu is no different. Designed for parties as intimate as two or as large as 12, Whole Foods Market's 2021 holiday menu has everything you need (and more) to plan the perfect, stress-free Christmas dinner that'll satisfy everyone's taste buds and dietary needs.

This Christmas, Whole Foods is bringing back its most popular holiday-meal packages, centered around main courses like beef wellington, prime rib, spiral ham, and roast turkey, all of which include an array of mouthwatering sides like green beans with roasted shallots; creamed spinach and kale; and macaroni and cheese. And don't forget dessert! The menu has 10 offerings, from holiday classics like pumpkin and pecan pie to a rolled chocolate sponge cake.

If you missed chef and cookbook author Chloe Coscarelli's vegan meal for two at Thanksgiving, now's your chance to try the Whole Foods holiday exclusive before it's gone. Plus, did we mention that all items — vegan, seafood, classics, and even organics — come premade? All you have to do is reheat!

Whole Foods is officially taking holiday-meal orders, and you can place yours online now up until Dec. 23. However, orders must be placed at least 24 hours ahead of pickup (Dec. 18 to Dec. 24), though earlier is always recommended as crowd favorites and à la carte items may run out quickly. See the Christmas meals and sides we're drooling over the most ahead (I highly recommend the Truffled Parmesan Mashed Potatoes and Cranberry Brie Purses). Then, head over to the Whole Foods website for the full menu with reheating instructions, nutritional information, and additional descriptions.
