I come from a Ukrainian Catholic Eastern Rite background and Christmas Eve was traditionally a meatless meal. So, we had heaping helpings of peddaheh (perogies), holopchi (cabbage rolls), hrinn (shredded beets and horseradish) and walleye fillets baked in a sour cream and onion sauce. Plus other vegetables and such.
My sister carries on this tradition and I'm very glad she does. Although it's been a few years now since I've been there to enjoy it.
This sounds really tasty. Especially the beets & horseradish.

It is delicious. Unfortunately, this year it will only be pyrohy (pierogi), mushroom gravy and borscht.
Do you also have kutya and/or compote?
For the second year in a row, we're having Korean pork that is in the oven most of the day. It's served with various vegetables and all gets piled on a bun with sauces. One of our house guests is Chinese and I hope she will offer to make dumplings as she's done in the past.

My brother-in-law is here this year (London-dwelling Scot) and I think he's disappointed we're not having mince pie, but it's not traditional here. Not unheard of, but also not traditional.
One year I decided to do something different so I made borscht, cabbage rolls, spaetzle and chicken paprikash, it came our well thank goodness. But I've never done that again, though I still make chicken paprikash.
We had tamales for Christmas eve dinner. That's a Mexican food but, of course, Mexico is still America, so that doesn't count as a non-American food. They are very much a Christmas tradition.
Christmas dinner will be roast beef, which is a British dish. Baked potatoes are Peruvian. No, never mind, Peru is still America.
