Holiday Roast with Walnut Sauce (Recipe)

NaturallySavvy.com

We love this show-stopping holiday dish that isn’t turkey and doesn’t take all day to make! The walnut sauce puts a festive spin on a traditional dinner, with the added benefit of the nut’s brain-boosting and disease-fighting nutritional power. Garnish with pomegranate or cranberry for even more holiday cheer.
