So I am brainstorming Christmas dinner. I do not want it to be too similar to our Thanksgiving dinner.
This is what I have thought of thus far:
Ham
Green bean casserole
Mashed potatoes
Cardamom Yams
Deviled eggs (bacon on top, maybe)
Cheese balls and crackers
Cookies and fudge for dessert
What I have depends on whether or not my family is with me. They might be going to spend it with in-laws. I have to stay within a certain range of advanced medical support and there’s nothing where they live. Would be nice to be able to plan.
I’m going to taco my arse off if left home alone.
For Christmas eve we are having homemade maid rites. I honestly don’t know what the plan is for Christmas day yet. We are opening presents and having my sister and her son and daughter over for Christmas eve. Maybe my brother and law and his wife and son as well, I’m not sure.
Anyway, I have not heard what the plans are for Christmas dinner itself.
I’ve made beef aspic. Had to as part of my chef’s training. It was narsty.
Yes. Novelty item intended for gamers who don’t want to leave their gaming chair to eat Xmas breakfast or dinner. I know someone who tried it and said it was less than auspicious. It’s a bucket list thing for me.
You should consider trying them sometime, they aren’t bad. A little hard to eat because they are messy with the “loose” hamburger and all, but a unique taste.
Just FYI, looking at that recipe and the reviews the pepper amount may be a little high. If you decide to try them sometime I would start out with less and season to taste. I’m not sure if my dad’s recipe uses pepper at all…it’s just one I pulled off the web that included the coca cola and Worcestershire sauce.
