What are you having for Christmas Dinner?

Other (Have we missed something? Tell us below)No chicken there!!! :huh: I know a number of people who have chicken instead of turkey as turkey is so dry. So I am surprised to see chicken not there.
I went for 'other' as we have a mixture of meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans in the house at Christmas. So we will have a mixture of chicken, nut roast, and the Quorn family roast.0 -
Other (Have we missed something? Tell us below)Either streak & chips or fajita's for us - both my wife & I like to relax at Christmas so we'll just have a quick and simple meal with plenty of nibbles for the rest of the day.0

Other (Have we missed something? Tell us below)Don't do christmas so no special dinner.
If I remember I had leftover mince on the 25th last year, it all depends on the day of the week and what I had the day before.0 -
Other (Have we missed something? Tell us below)We are going to do something completely unconventional and have a huge salad.

TurkeyI will be going to my parent's house and mum cooks a huge turkey, ham, stuffing, roasties, mash, Brussels, peas, carrots, cauli, gravy and probably a few other bits I have forgotten. I usually go round on Christmas eve for an hour or two and help with the prep so its just a matter of turning the oven & hobs on.
If I was on my own I wouldn't make so much of a fuss. I would be happy with a stuffing sandwich and roasties with gravy.Mortgage = [STRIKE]£113,495 (May 2009)[/STRIKE] £67462.74 Jun 20190 -
TurkeyWe have turkey and beef and there is a ham,(ham cooked xmas eve) so something for everyone, all meat is used in various ways for days after.

Other (Have we missed something? Tell us below)Definitely not turkey!
Probably lots of nibbles (canape type things) both home made and bought in, the same as last year.0
