December is all about CHEESE, according to STL Dairy Council Nutrition Educator Maggie Nosic, who says the holiday season is the perfect time to celebrate the comfort, flavor, and versatility that cheese brings to the table. Nosic highlights how cheese can elevate everything from festive appetizers to cozy winter meals while also providing important nutrients like protein and calcium. She encourages families to explore new varieties, pair cheese with seasonal produce, and enjoy it in moderation as part of a balanced holiday diet.
