What’s for Christmas Eve dinner?

[aperollingintotheweekend]

I just got back with a Camembert to bake and a smorgasbord of party nibbles. Many pigs in blankets! All the cheeses and hams. Already have enough booze to open a bar.

my usual healthy diet is having a few days off…

Curious to know what everyone else is having?

Merry Christmas and hope you all have a great one 🎄🎄

Steak and chips. Currently baking cheese scones which are a must in my family and am cooking the gammon for tomorrow

ham in Coke, baguette, salad, pickles and mature cheddar
crisps and chocs to follow!
merry Christmas all

Steak, garlic parmesan roasties, serrano wrapped tenderstem and cavolo nero. Can't wait 😁

Happy Christmas! 🎄

This sounds amazing!

I am glad not to be hosting this year or I’d probably be scarfing a bowl of cereal!

Steak, chips and salad with lots of wine!

Salmon fillets in a cream sauce.

A takeaway meze from the wonderful local Turkish restaurant.

It's quite expensive so we only ever really get it on Christmas Eve or birthdays.

I can't wait!

Salt and chilli pork belly with mash and sprouting broccoli

Homemade broccoli and Stilton soup and a roast chicken with warm baguettes

Potato gratin which I made this morning, roast salmon and peas.

Plus some rose wine.

Had some snacks bits earlier.

I’m going to listen to Kings choir now and leave dh and my dad watching the darts😅

Lamb chops roasted with potato wedges, peppers and green beans. Easy and a treat 😋

Mmmmmm! 🤤

Enjoy!

Pasta with spicy sausage sauce. A family tradition.

Chinese takeaway from our favourite place

Macaroni cheese with pigs in blanket, possibly garlic bread and broccoli.

A few bits and bobs from the M&S celebratory food range which I ordered because they look good but which I wouldn't be able to tessalate into the oven tomorrow. With broccoli.

Chip-shop chips and mushy peas with loads of salt and vinegar plus a cod to share for the kitties. Simple. Perfect 👌🏼 🎄😺

Indian 😻

Fresh lobster, langoustines, crab, mussels, clams and scallops with crusty bread. We have cocktail sauce, garlic aioli, melted butter and mignonette sauce to go with it.

Pizza

Pizza! A decent one not the big standard usual one. 👌

Happy Christmas 🎄

Fancy! 💫

A Chinese takeaway, like a lot of secular Jews on xmas eve/xmas day.

Followed by a Yule log with squirty cream.

Slow cooked ham, root vegetable gratin, potato wedges, corn on the cob, salad and crusty bread.

I’m pottering round the kitchen v happily drinking mulled wine putting this together while extended (visiting) family play board games in the living room. We dank a load of wine last night though so I think we’ll have less of a party vibe this evening 😌

Merry Christmas!
