What do you have for Christmas Dinner

[Queen Jenn 0]

Cool. It's interesting to find out what traditions others have. We do our dinner on Christmas eve with a Honey Baked Ham, au gratin potatoes, veggies, hot wassail, rolls, and salad. On Christmas Day, we just snack on all the goodies we've gotten for Christmas.

we just do a big buffet table w/ snack foods...couple deli trays, differnt types of breads, veggie tray, crock pot full of cheese dip, sausage balls, lil smokies, some desserts...etc. it works out pretty well & its not a big ordeal to clean up.

We save the ham for Easter and we eat prime rib for Christmas.

christmas eve we do a roast goose, roast pork (with the skin on it), red cabbage, potatoes, and gravy.

christmas day we have a traditional danish smorrebrod. hours and hours of food that include left overs from the night before, all kinds of cold salads with different herrings, shrimp salad, salmon salad, ham with italian salad, roast beef, sliced ham, sausages, liver pate, danish cheeses, breads, and so on.

i can't wait! i wasn't in town last christmas and missed it! i think this year i'll make a princess cake and some other scandanavian desserts.

Christmas at my mom and dad's house usually consist of a ham and cheese potatos. But the last few years she has not had that. Its been more of snacking over there. And for my husband we will probably just stay home and have whatever he would like to cook up. Nothing special for us, except that we are together finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and also speaking of traditions...in my country Baby Jesus brings us presents on Xmas Eve (24th right? )...the whole day we are supposed to fast so we can see a golden piglet

then in the evening we have the festive dinner and also special kind of xmas sweets (lotsa different kinds) and pressies come after....Xmas Day (25th) and the day after are special holidays and we go visit other members of our family

The prime rib sounds pretty good. We may have to adopt that one year.

We usually make a HUGE pot of dolma, roasted chicken, rice with meat an pine nuts, salads, lots of appitizers, lots of alcohol, and ofcourse desserts.

We don't do dinner for Christmas. We do brunch with French toast, omelettes, cookies, croissants, cookies, bacon, cookies, sausage, and, oh yes, some Christmas cookies.

Yum.

Well in years past it's usually been a Christmas ham. On Christmas day, late lunch. This year I'll be in Germany and it will be Schnitzel Holstein on Christmas Eve (according to P the "real Christmas"). I suppose we'll do Schnitzel Holstein on 12/24 and ham on 12/25 in future years to make everyone happy

And almost always homemade cinnamon rolls Christmas morning.

Cheese fondue for us:)

Goose on Boxing day, yummy!

That sounds very tasty. The cinnamon rolls and the schnitzel. I haven't had any schnitzel since last winter. My fiancée likes preparing German dishes and especially since I'm of German heritage myself.
