I’m doing sprouts (well my mum is bringing those), carrots, peas, roast parsnips, carrot and swede mash and, of course, roast potatoes.

Roast potatoes, roast parsnips, a few roast carrots for DH, boiled carrots, carrot and swede mash, sprouts (some boiled, some stir fried), braised red cabbage, leeks baked in cheese sauce, DS wants cauliflower.
DD is having cucumber as it's the only veg she likes (with pesto pasta as she doesn't like roast and a few pigs in blankets!).
Had 9 veg sides one year, so I feel quite restrained.

sprouts with chestnuts and bacon
creamed parsnips
roast squash

Ensuring of course that we cook double what is required so there is enough for leftovers and a fry-up.

Roast potatoes, roast parsnips, red cabbage (courtesy M&S), plain steamed cauliflower and broccoli florets, carrots, brussels sprouts.

To go alongside the turkey: pigs in blankets, a pork sausagemeat stuffing from Sainsbs and paxo sage and onion with garlic.

Gravy via a Knorr stock pot. Cranberry sauce in a jar from Sainsbs.

I can't see the appeal in me cooking for days for 1 dinner.

Cheesey or gratin-y sauces have no place alongside gravy, imo.
