Christmas Eve dinner

[PrincessHoneysuckle]

I'm doing m&s prawn toasts,filo prawns and king prawn selection and mini coquille st Jacques

Gammon that I always cook Xmas Eve with eggs, bread & butter (real proper posh butter)
May do some chips too

@bradypuss 1980'salad...? Please share

I thought it was the law that everyone eats honey ham on Christmas Eve? With macaroni cheese and salad for lunch. Then a giant cheese board in the evening. We spruce ours up with pigs on blankets and mustard 😂

Home made curry. The spice legend book was the best thing I received in lockdown as the curries are easy but delicious

Smoked salmon blinis, sausage rolls, mini pizzas, duck spring rolls, vegetable gyozas, cheese and crackers, Pringles and dips. Followed by chocolates and mince pies. I can’t wait!

We're having pancakes!

Nibbles: Quails eggs & celery salt, olive and parmesan palmiers, pigs in blankets.
Main: Steak, chips, tender stem broccoli and cheesy leek gratin (veggie main)
Pudding: black forest gateau mess

We are also having KFC.
When I was a child my family always ordered Indian takeaway.
And previous years it's been pork and stuffing rolls (much to my dismay)

Wow!

Delias red wine braised sausages and mash. Mmmm

This sounds fab!

We all choose our favourite 'special' dinner on Christmas Eve and often have different things from the picky buffet bits to Chinese/ Indian ready meals from M&S to salmon and prawn cocktails to cheese boards. The only day of the year I'll happily prepare everyone different meals so it's quite a special tradition.

Nando’s for lunch, then sausage sandwiches for tea.

Homemade pizza so everyone can have their favourite toppings

Pork, stuffing and gravy baps with crackling. Will cook the meat all day in slow cooker so that it can be pulled apart with a spoon!

Steak baguettes for us!

Gammon, chips, egg or pinapple with Mary Berrys homemade Yule log - do it every year!

Steak pie, cauliflower cheese and either chips or mash with extra gravy.

Was going to be Dominos pizza but I've just whatsapped DDs asking what they think of doing Christmas Dinner on Christmas Eve now! I've been influenced

It was to be takeaway but I got an unexpected Hello Fresh delivery (thought I'd cancelled it as I have enough food to feed the ten thousand). Anyhoo we are having one of those - probably pasta dish. Slightly complicated by the fact I have to collect my son from Portsmouth at about 6.15 - though could be an hour later if he misses the ferry (we live in London he lives on the IOW).

Fry up, as we have homemade cinnamon rolls for Christmas breakfast

M&S ready meals - for some reason it’s become a bit of a tradition as we always host on Xmas day. Quick, easy and the kids like them.

Thinking I might need to mix it up next year!

Takeaway pizzas, and salads.
And cocktails.

A takeaway, I can’t face cooking and wrapping and sorting everything for the morning xx

Was going to cook something nice, ran out of time (and patience) so I went to Tesco at 9pm last night and bought oven pizzas, olives, hummus and charcuterie. Bon appetit 😂
