What do you all eat for Christmas dinner?

---------- Post added 24th Dec 2011 at 04:53 PM ----------

We have turkey for me and a vegetarian roast for my family (which I also have)

fiddledeedee · 24th Dec 2011, 08:58 AM

Tomorrow here at home, Mum and I will have a small pork roast, preprepared, and there is a nut roast for my brothers. On Boxing Day lunch I, my brothers, and my father will be in Brighton where Grandma will have a SECOND Christmas dinner ready! That will involve some wonderful turkey and a vegetarian dish of some kind.

The most important thing of these meals is the roast potatoes, though!

Turkey turkey turkey!
It's the best bird to eat!

Black Cat · 24th Dec 2011, 10:37 AM

We do a Beef Roast, which I affectionately dub "The Roast Beest" because of the Grinch. And it has to be spelled with two e's, because that's how my brother spelled it once. xD

Zach · 24th Dec 2011, 11:40 AM

Nothing special this year, it's just me this year so it'll probably be something simple like a pizza or burgers.

seeksanctuary · 24th Dec 2011, 11:47 AM

I have a tofurkey. XD I rub it down with garlic, honey and mustard... it comes out pretty tasty.

Doctor Faustus · 24th Dec 2011, 12:08 PM

All-Chinese banquet FTW.

24th Dec 2011, 12:35 PM

Dumplings!

GuyDC21 · 24th Dec 2011, 12:42 PM

Baked Ham and Scotch.

Random Dent · 24th Dec 2011, 01:45 PM

We're having our dinner tonight, and it is going to consist of: Turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing/dressing, yams, veggies, pies, rolls...all kinds of stuff.

J Snow · 24th Dec 2011, 02:44 PM

Well for Christmas Eve it is always chili and potato soup. I will update on tomorrow's result though. I don't know what the main course will be but there will surely be no shortage to side. I'm more of a sides kind of person so I don't usually find the main meat course that memorable. It will likely be ham though.

Ianthe · 24th Dec 2011, 06:17 PM

After turkey for thanksgiving, we usually want something else for Christmas, and it's usually beef.

concklin · 24th Dec 2011, 06:52 PM

My family usually does another thanksgiving dinner for Christmas. But this year we're doing Italian.

Fairybread · 24th Dec 2011, 08:28 PM

We just had ours.. Chicken, ham, potato, green salad, pasta salad, beetroot, asparagus, bread for dinner/lunch

Followed by pavelova, jelly, ice-cream, trifle, steamed pudding, strawberries, brandy snaps, eclairs for dessert.

And then later on, for dinner dinner, we're having a BBQ.

And I ate chocolate for breakfast xD

alex2020 · 24th Dec 2011, 10:13 PM

We always have a ham, and usually a turkey as well.

Reading through this thread is making me very hungry!

Austin · 25th Dec 2011, 01:47 PM

I don't know what we're having yet. D: I hope it's not ham though. I hate ham.

**Filip** · 25th Dec 2011, 02:20 PM

We don't really have a traditional dish, but the last few years we had venison. with this year not being the exception.

Started with Foie Gras, continued with Venison, baked pears and Gratin Dauphinois, then on to the cheese, and finished with the traditional ice cream.

A disaster for my weight, but this is one day I'm not regretting that overmuch
