Christmas Dinner... What you having?

Hello fellow Christmas lovers!

I'm just wondering what do you all have for Crimbo dinner?

what veggies do you have? Sprouts are a must for me but broccoli has absolutely no place on my christmas plate

Mash or roasties? For me must be crisp goose fat roasties

What meat do you all have? Beef? Chicken? Turkey? Fish?

Yorkshire puddings do they belong on a Christmas dinner plate?

let the debate begin!

Choice of pate or smoked salmon mousse.
Turkey, sage & onion / sausage meat stuffings, pigs in blankets, roast pots / parsnips, sprouts, peas, carrots, cauliflower cheese (and randomly apple sauce for DH and DD).
Choice of xmas pud / sauce or (this year) M&S Sticky toffee pudding trifle.
I always have a plate of choc mints, mince pies, florentines etc ready too but we're usually in a food coma before then.

Hopefully if government restrictions allow, we and DS and partner are going to the Six Bells in Horley for Christmas lunch.

We always go to my mums for Christmas Dinner. As she is my bubble we can still go but that means my sister can’t (she usually goes every other year)
Bless my mum, she is not a very good cook. Roasties are pale, turkey is dry, veg is cold and gravy is like brown water. But it would not be Christmas otherwise 🤣

Starter:
Prawn cocktail

Main:
Turkey & lamb
Roast potatoes, pigs in blankets, sprouts, stuffing, roasted parsnips and gravy.

Desert:
Nothing 😳
She does have mince pies in but thats it. Kids have some chocolate from their Christmas presents. I think I will make or but a desert this year though.
