Christmas Menu

[DizzyGirl]

Well Christmas is less than one month away 

I thought I would start preparing my Christmas Day menu and thought I would get a few ideas from other members.

What are you planning to cook in your TMX for Christmas?

We are going to DD2's for lunch this year so very little going on around here.  Obviously I will get a ham and perhaps cook a turkey roll so that we have some cold meat on hand for what will probably be much warmer weather than we are having at the moment.  It wouldn't seem like Christmas if I didn't have ham and turkey in the fridge and I can share whatever I do with my Mum.

Christmas this year will be spent at my parents (about ½ hr away). So far I am planning to cook the following

JudyDawns French Onion Dip
Achookwomans Savoury Flat Bread
JudyDawns Noodle and Cheese Slice
Teninas White Chocolate Minty Truffles
I Love Bimbys Tangy Seafood Salad

Once I receive Teninas Dinner Spinner I am sure I will be adding to the list LOL.

I am the Christmas pudding maker amongs my family since my grandmother passed away several years ago. I still use her recipe and everyone loves it. This year will be my first Christmas with TM so I am sure some of the preparation will be done with the TM. I also cook the chicken ( cause I am the only one who is not keen on ham and turkey) we are all at my parents place for Christmas this year and everyone brings something. There is usually quiet a few of us for Christmas lunch and dinner.

Hally that was the reason why Christmas arrived earlier than usual at our place - I am taking thermie with us to Ayr, how frustrating slaving over a hot stove making the custard, brandy sauce, hollandaise etc, etc with a thermie 7 hrs away doing nothing

Because there's just the two of us we don't really do anything special for Xmas - I'm just looking forward to having loads of free time to cook everything I have been promising myself I'm going to cook during the year but never had time or didn't get around to it.  I'm planning for my freezer to be bulging at the seams by the time I've finished!
