Nice Xmas food ideas while heavily pregnant

I’m due my first baby end of December, it will just be DH and I, no family around and most friends are busy/ away. I saw an easy recipe for slow cooker chocolate fondue on Instagram so I’m looking for more ideas to help us enjoy Christmas while we wait patiently for baby to arrive.

We need some ideas for cooking as my back is really starting to hurt if I stand too long, of course DH will be cooking but he’s not the best cook (either am I) and we could do with some easy, comfort food.

Congratulations! We like to do this Nigel Slater ham and it’s a good thing to last a few meals… so a good idea to save you too much time at the stove.

Otherwise, I think I’d be air frying mac and cheese bites and sausage rolls on the daily.

It may seem excessive to top a ham with bacon, but Christmas is a time for generosity.

Oops should have said, I’m pescatarian, DH isn’t though.

I know you're pescatarian rather than vegetarian but the Quorn roast is really delicious and so easy to cook.
