Christmas dinner thread 2025 - post your pics!

[PeonyPatch]

There’s the fridge thread, but here’s a Christmas Day dinner pic thread 😁

It’s all a bit of fun. Sending my good wishes to all this Christmas x

Wow massive!! 👏

I’m so jealous of all these amazing dinners! DM decided we would have xmas dinner in a couple of days when Dsis comes to visit….and then ended up having a half arsed roast dinner with none of the good bits! Next year I will be cooking and we WILL have cauliflower cheese, pigs in blankets, stuffings and enough yorkshires for everyone to have one…..

here’s mine

This was my DDs plate - the only one who takes pics of the food. She went a tad overboard with the roasties, but didn't add any pigs in blankets.

Is that bread sauce?! I’m the only one in my family who likes it ❤️😭

Now that’s what I’m talking about… THATS A CHRISTMAS DINNER and a half! Also impressed by @Theda13 😄

I am loving that people have cracked out the Yorkies too!!! Get in there!

Turkey plus all the usual. I cooked and DH cleared up. No dramas. Leftovers for days. Feeling stuffed but good

Bread sauce?! 🥰🥰

Think you needed a bigger plate🤣

Oh yes it’s on there and cranberry sauce 😋 I grew up with it and absolutely love it 🥰 🥰

Wonderful!

My hand for scale. 😂

Biggest plates we own, known as the 'bucket plates' in this house. I ate it all. 😳 And trifle. And then some Galaxy. 🥵

I'll be starting the usual diet come January.

No photos but we have oval white steak plates which are big (our everyday plates )

Roast potatoes (which were delicious, I've had some rubbish hard potatoes recently)
Roast parsnips
Steamed carrots
Sprouts ( with the cross cut to let Satan out)
Pureed swede which was very pale , I prefer a yellow swede
Gravy
Yorkshire Puddings (I made)
Cauliflower and Broccoli Cheese
Sage&Onion stuffing (Paxo)
Quorn Roast ( for DH,DD and me)
Roast chicken ( for DS and the Cats)
No bread sauce as I didn't have cloves
I don't like too much additions , no honey or added "things" .

No photo. But we had gravy, lamb rack, beef rump with bone marrow, roasties in goose fat, new potatoes, sweet potato mash, Yorkshire puds, stuffing, pigs in blankets, peas, carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, green beans, sprouts, stringless beans, honey roast parsnips and swede! All just about fit on the plate.

Then clotted cream cheesecake for dessert.there is also a Christmas pudding their which I may do later with some squirty cream for me and double cream for the others.

I'm not looking at the dinners as such , but have plate envy when I see slightly lipped plates , such a good idea for those of us that like lots of gravy & sauces !

Haha text decided lipped was killed .

I posted mine on this thread…

This was my husbands (we are veggie so had a veggie turkey and nut roast) it was amazing

Didn’t make my own yorkshire puds, please don’t judge me! Said I wouldn’t do turkey this year as I usually find it a bit dry but gave it another go and it turned out well.

Boxing Day lunch… Wagyu beef from M&S 😍

delish loads of roasties

is that shredded sprouts so much nice than whole ones looks delish

Yes, shredded and pan fried with pancetta. They were indeed delicious.

Lunch leftovers! We are only a family of 4 (two adults, two kids aged 11 and 8) so there was a fair amount left.

We still have half a roast gammon joint, both the bird's legs, some pigs in blankets, several Yorkshires, lots of broccoli and cauliflower cheese and about half a pan of gravy left for tomorrow ... with chips. 😂

So i was working christmas day as a nurse.
I was treated to a free christmas lunch by the NHS.
Im gonna say it wasnt bad. Tasted pretty good, plesently surprised, as previous years ive woeked christmas its veen a real let down.
