Trying not to overdo it this year

Turkey, chipolatas wrapped in bacon, stuffing, bread sauce, cranberry sauce, gravy
Roast potatoes, roast parsnips (definitely no Yorkshire pud -they're for beef only in my house)
carrots, peas (veg are low key on Christmas day -what everyone really wants is a big roast bird plus trimmings)

Christmas Pud and cream or bûche noël (for the kids who don't like the pud and opted for this when I foolishly gave them the choice of ice cream or buche noel -ice cream would have been so much easier:rolleyes: )

I don't do tea on Christmas day, but I should think there'll be some turkey sandwiches and mince pies. I make sausage rolls on Christmas Eve so there'll be those along with florentines my other Christmas speciality.

Brekkie - probably HM american pancakes with bacon and blueberries in syrup
Lunch - going non-traditional this year, it's a gammon. Trimmings are crispy roasters, chestnut and bacon stuffing, honey and ginger roast parsnips, bread sauce, chipolatas, gravy and maybe a sprout or two if I must (cook them, that is, I certainly won't be eating the smelly little ****s!). For pud, am making some creme brulees, raspberry sauce and HM choc truffles.
Dinner: leftover gammon, HM bread, chutney, ice cream.

As the Christmas lunch menu and Christmas day menu threads are running together side by side I've merged them to keep the replies together.
