Looks like prawn and mango salad, prosciutto and rockmelon to start; tuna pasta and baked ragu pasta for the little kids, barbecued ham and baked lamb for everyone, rice potatoes something green and salad, cassata, mince pies and custard , Christmas cake, chocolate reindeer cupcakes, and the kids want vanilla ice cream with strawberry sauce and marshmallows. Cherries, strawberries, mangoes.
No dinner planned!
Just the two of us this year we have decided to stay home so dinner will be
ham cooked with coca cola and brown sugar
creamed corn casserole
rolls
some mashed potatoes
and maybe a nice salad
we will mainly play it by ear
We do our own version of the Italian Feast of the Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve. Usually it ends up being the Feast of the Three or Four Fishes, however, lol
This year:
Linguini with anchovy garlic aioli (a must have on Christmas Eve!)
Baccala (dried, reconstituted salt cod). This year I’m going to cook it in tomatoes, have not tried it that way before.
Boiled chilled shrimp
Fried smelts (Very difficult to find in this town!)
Hot crab dip
Assorted cheeses
Green salad
We don’t usually have a big thing on Christmas Day, we’ve always hosted the family on the eve. This year, though, I think we’ll do a beef rib roast, maybe on the grill.
Turkey
apricot and wild rice stuffing
wilted spinach salad
cauliflower gratin-ish thing
MIL is going to bring potato salad
SIL is bringing dessert
Hmmm, maybe one more thing.

interesting how different our Christmas dinner is depending on where we live.
Main course: turkey, mashed potatoes with gravy, carrots, green beans, rice pilaf, pumpkin pie, beer and wine.
