Battle plan for Christmas day meal

lazygal · 2015-10-27 11:30:57

We're hosting Christmas dinner this year. There'll be 8-10 adults and five children. I love cooking and am already going through my Christmas cookbooks and recipes to decide what I'll do. Any one else hosting the big meal of the year and have any tips or tricks for me?

I picked mine up in lidl and followed the cooking instructions on the packet. I cooked it the day before and we had it Christmas Eve cold with salad before the big day!

Oh great! Thank u x I was thinking of doing the same and having it cooled as a starter with a salad something different. But glad to hear you'd recommend the aldI one I can add that to my shopping list now too

I do love a good Spiced Beef sandwich with Dijon mustard and a bit of the spiced, red cabbage. Savage.

BTW, that Chestnut Stuffing is the business....
