LCBO Food & Drink Holiday 2025

BETTER FOR YOU

Lighten Up It’s okay to indulge in all those holiday dishes you wait for all year, but balance them with mindful, better-for-you choices, from hearty salads to tempting meatballs. You may even have room for dessert.

WHAT TO SERVE

Bodegas Lan Verdejo DO Rueda LCBO 44524, $14.40 You’re matching to the tahini sauce here, and a tangy, herbal Rueda made with the Verdejo grape is a great idea. Look for pear and fennel notes.
