First year of being veggie (eat fish so pescatarian I think) - what are your best and/or go to Christmas dinners?

Quorn roast for me.

I used to get a dry mix called Chicken Supreme, later renamed Chicken Style Bake but the fat content was high and microwaved leftovers tasted like damp socks.

Jamie Oliver has a really good gravy on his website: www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/vegetables-recipes/vegan-gravy/

I make it ahead and freeze. And serve it for everyone so no-one has to mess around making meat gravy just when food is ready to be served. And whoever said that nut roast is like stuffing, I use it as an excuse not to make/ serve another stuffing. My family don't seem to mind having roast instead of sage and onion... and it helps avoid a whole week of nut roast for every meal!

Cheesy roast potatoes with a crispy green salad, Shloer to drink. Sounds boring but it's lush!

Well...I’m getting worried I may be having pasta for Xmas dinner! Tried to start getting in bits this week and supermarket seem poorly organised.

Was very lucky to get a Xmas week delivery slot - release 7am had booked by 7.08am and when I finished my placemarking shop all slots from now until then and for all currently available dates after (admittedly only 6 days). I’m reliant on deliveries being housebound and I’m getting worried.

How’s everyone else doing?

I get the ready made marks and spencer ricotta stacks (they are absolutely delicious). Appreciate it is a little lazy compared to all of the lovely ideas on this post Smile

Agree with the suggestion for the BBC good food veggie Christmas magazine. I made quite a bit from there last year and there are lots of lovely year round recipes
