Our usual routine of bacon butties for breakfast (pastries for me), christmas dinner at muns at lunchtime and a buffet affair in the evening is changing to make it easier for mum who still wants to host but wants more time to prepare and cook - and a lie in!

So it will be me and my DH and 2 dc and possibly my sister and niece at lunchtime.

What can we have that is sufficiently festive but really easy to do without spoiling our dinner later?

Normal cereal for breakfast.
Smoked salmon, cheeses and cooked meats with bread hot out of the oven (part baked from Tesco). Mince pies.
Dinner at 6pm.
We used to eat our main meal at 1 but this is so much more relaxed. I even manage a walk in the afternoon while the turkey is cooking!

Dessert and cheeseboard around 9pm if anyone wants to eat.
