Every year, the holidays are always filled with happy moments and incredible activities. Even more so, the food during this time period is highly celebratory and nostalgic. No matter if you’re a major fan of turkey or a sucker for a warm bowl of soup, there are many options that you can cook up for yourself and family during the holiday season. However, if you’re having trouble finding a side dish or haven’t figured out what the star of the show will be for holiday dinner, it’s best to turn to your lovely Zodiac sign.
Your personality traits can come in handy when you’re in search of food. Even if it’s something that you don’t normally eat, you’re about to find a new food item to put on your holiday menu for years to come. So just in case you have ever wondered, here’s all of the best holiday dishes as zodiac signs.
Aries (March 21 – April 19): Roasted Turkey
For the bold leaders at heart, a roasted turkey is the ideal food for Aries. Known for their direct and concrete personalities, Aries never fails to showcase their attitude and jump head first into taking risks (and flavor).
Taurus (April 20 – May 20): Mashed Potatoes
There’s nothing more comforting than a bowl of mashed potatoes, which describes Tauruses’ personas perfectly. Taurus love to own their own comfort and are grounded among the many things that happen around them. Like a bowl of mashed potatoes, you can always count on them.
Gemini (May 21 – June 20): Dinner Rolls
Geminis are defined by their “social butterfly” image, but can also be open-minded and versatile in what they do. Dinner rolls showcase versatility, as you can eat them by themselves or get creative by making sliders, cheesy bread or monkey bread. Not to mention, they make for a great dinner table conversation.
Cancer (June 21 – July 22): Dressing
Every holiday, it seems that one food item that never gets left out is dressing. While some people love stuffing, dressing may be the most preferred for others. Cancers can agree with the latter, as they don’t believe in changes in a routine, but are big on stability and security.
Leo (July 23 – August 22): Glazed Ham
Similar to Aries, Leos are also natural born leaders and love to be the star of the show. Glazed ham is another crowd-pleaser that is determined to fill everyone’s bellies and provide the heart-warming feeling from its savoriness.
Virgo (August 23 – September 22): Green Bean Casserole
Known for their analytical and modest attitude, Virgos are practical in their personalities to the point that they don’t like all of the attention on them. Adding on to that, Virgos are big fans of healthy food, making the green bean casserole an excellent choice for them. Like Virgos, the green bean casserole doesn’t get much praise, but is a delicious pairing for other holiday food.
Libra (September 23 – October 22): Baked Mac and Cheese
Libras are all about keeping things balanced and harmonized, while being drawn to anything that screams “beautiful.” Without a doubt, baked mac and cheese features all of these traits — from their eye-appealing crispy layer to their creamy and rich texture, you can’t deny this scrumptious and delectable dish.
Scorpio (October 23 – November 21): Beef Wellington
Beef wellingtons are hardly ever brought up on the holiday menu, but can be an interesting food to try out. Scorpios are great speakers and can be the ideal spokesperson to uncover the unique taste of beef wellingtons.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 21): Sweet Potato Souffle
Sagittariusians love to be adventurous and are often curious about the unknown. The sweet potato souffle is a perfect dish for Sagittariusians to live out their wondrous minds — with its sweet and spiced flavor, combined with a brown sugar topping, making it an amazing side dish for the holidays. If you’re feeling a little dareful, throw some marshmallows in that bad boy!
Capricorn (December 22 – January 19): Candied Yams
Following suit of the sweet potato souffle, candied yams is a sweet and indulgent side dish that is reminiscent of sweet potato pie. Capricorns can relate a lot to this dish — they often appear serious and ambitious, but deep down, they have a soft spot that is both comforting and inviting.
Aquarius (January 20 – February 18): Spicy Deviled Eggs
Aquarians are known for being free-spirits and idealistic, making spicy deviled eggs their go-to for the holidays. This dish hit all of the notes on smokiness and fieriness, and it’s a great appetizer before the main course arrives.
Pisces (February 19 – March 20): Apple Pie
Pisces are big on forming deep bonds and going with the natural flow of life — that’s where the ultimate dessert comes in: apple pie. Apple pie is the best dessert choice to go for during the holidays, especially if you’re in the mood for some nostalgia.
