Christmas Dinner... What you having?

[Disneyfreaks]

For us, we’re very traditional - we have turkey & one other joint of meat, usually beef or gammon

Roasties, no mash...But possibly mashed swede !

Sprouts are a MUST, along with cheesy leeks or cauliflower cheese, carrots, peas etc ..Plus the usual roasted Parsnips..of course, bread sauce, stuffing & gravy...

Loads of Pigs in blankets & YES to Yorkies too !

Ooooh my mouths watering at the thought !

[Sandra & co]

A selection of Sainsburys starters that you bung in the oven, filo prawns, mozzarella sticks, spring rolls etc.

Turkey Crown, Roast potato’s, Brussel sprouts, green beans, Cauliflower, roasted carrots and parsnips, sage and onion stuffing, pigs in blankets, Yorkshire puds and gravy

Christmas pud and profiteroles and cream

Coffee and chocolates galore

I also cook a ham on Christmas Eve that we have on Boxing Day at my sisters with lots of bits and pieces, yum 😋

No starter.

Turkey breast in bacon, 4 cheese sprouts, roasties, parsnip puree, gravy, cranberry jelly, yorkies.

Dessert either trifle or some other home made dessert. Other years been buying a M&s dessert but nothing this year took my fancy.

Mains is Turkey, pigs in blankets, roast potatoes, sweetcorn (only veg hubby eats) peas, roast carrots and parsnips, yorkshire puddings , stuffing balls (with sausage meat) Gravy
Dessert is Christmas pudding and brandy sauce (for me, only one who likes it)
Ice cream for the others or cheesecake

Last year we were in Disney and had Christmas Day Brunch at the Yacht Club and Dinner at Mama Melrose
This year we are going to have a curry here. I cant stand Turkey Christmas Dinner x

[Nicksgirl]

Turkey and usually a second meat, my fab roasties, leeks, parsnips, bacon rolls and chipolatas, beans and carrots, cabbage with bacon and chestnuts and Yorkshire puds. A Sherry laden trifle for Dessert.

I don't do a starter as by then we have all eaten, chocolates, nuts and god knows what else.

This year though, its going to so sad without my Mr. Douglas and I am not sure how we are going to play it, probably only put the tree up, not going the whole hog.
Wont be as wonderful as always without him, he loved it all.
