What are you cooking (or eating) for Christmas Day?
We had tamales at one Christmas party, turkey & dressing at another, and we are having lasagne on Christmas eve. I need ideas for Christmas day since I’ll be the one cooking. : )
We are looking at 69 degrees and sunny that day. I was considering steaks and brats on the grill but am not sure yet.
Mmmm, honey baked ham, green been casserole, mashed potatoes are sounding really good right about now!!!

Roast beef, it’s simple to cook, easy to prepare, easy to serve, and looks and tastes great. Serve it with a nice gravy. Cook your beef to medium rare in the middle, then there will be beef cooked to everyone’s liking. Check online for recipes, I could recommend preparing it with olive oil, salt and pepper, garlic and rosemary. Serve it with roast potatoes, which are simple to make as well. hope this is of help

Ok, here we go… 🙂
Christmas Eve we are going to my stepdad’s family’s house. We are taking an italian pasta salad and my stepdad is making mini grilled chicken sandwiches and mini steak sandwiches. He’s going to get the chicken breasts and steaks and pound them out thin and then grill them and put them on mini hamburger buns. He’s bringing a raspberry vinagrette dressing for the chicken sandwiches and I’m not sure what he’s bringing for the steak sandwiches.
Christmas Day for lunch I’m going to my dad’s house. We are having a Honeybaked Ham, Green Beans, and I’m not sure what else, actually.
Christmas Dinner at my house – We are having a ham, macaroni salad, potato salad and a whole bunch of different deserts.
I’m going to gain 50 lbs. I just know it.

At my mother’s (and before her, my grandmother’s) we have the same thing every year, and it is my favorite meal (better than Thanksgiving):
roast beef (roast “beast” I like to call it)
twice baked potatoes (stuffed potatoes)
We have other side items too, but those two are my favorite.
December 17th, 2010 at 8:53 am
Tamales sound sooooooo good! I really want some! Unfortunatly we aren’t having a dinner. (Ours is Friday) But on Christmas Day Me and the kids are going to make a bunch of fudge and cookies! I’m excited we are going to make all different kinds and we went to the dollar store and bought a bunch of those Christmas tins and that is what my daughter is giving everyone for Christmas. (Tins filled with cookies and fudge)
As far as the dinner on Friday goes, it will probably be Mexican food (Dorito Casserole, Enchildas, stuff like that)

I’m a pescetarian so the only animal based food I eat is fish. I
We usually have smoked salmon or sea bream but on occasion I’ll make a nut roast. Fish is a good one though because there’s so many different types yew can have anything and it’ll go with loads of different things.

69 degrees and sunny! I am so jealous right now – it is negative 10 out right now and is supposed to snow the next two days! yuck…
Yesterday was our first Christmas dinner, my mom made lasagna, green beans, salad and bread with sausage and meat balls. Christmas Eve is at my Grandma’s, she usually makes a pork roast, beans, rolls, etc. I’m going to bring a salad since I don’t eat pork!
Christmas is at my house and I am going to make an appetizer, not sure what yet and then pick up the rest of the food at a local Italian place. I’m thinking chicken parmesan, ravioli and spaghetti?? My mom will bring the dessert!
Last Christmas my mom made shrimp scampi and her boyfriend made jambalaya. Strange mix but it was all good!
