So, what will you guys be eating around this Christmas days?

Me and my parents will be cooking for the whole family (9 people). It will kinda be a buffet style, with multiple starters, multiple mains and 2 dessert options.
Some of the dishes for tomorrow:
Salmon
Carpaccio
Chicken skewers
Pork tenderloin
Fried potatoes
Caprese salad in a fancy way
Something with creme brulee ice cream

But there’s much more, I didn’t want to make a too long list

I don’t know, pizza maybe? :eyes::sparkles::sweat_smile::smile_cat:
We don’t celebrate Christmas, so it will be the normal food for that day :smiley_cat::green_heart::eyes::sparkles:

It honestly depends on where we’re going for Christmas dinner. We’re waiting for our relatives to let us know if we’re going with them or not, because it depends on some of their relatives from the other side of the family.
But a typical Christmas dinner here consists of:

-Bacalao a la vizcaina
-Romeritos
-Stuffed turkey
-Pork loin
-Apple salad
-Pasta salad

Last night I made a ton of French food! Today too, actually. I was helping out my mother-in-law because it’s her first Christmas without her mom who passed recently. We didn’t have foie gras (not that I’d eat it anyway) because that was her specialty dish but it’s very typical of French cuisine.

Typical French Christmas Eve feast:

  • Toasts with different tapenade spreads
  • Oysters with lemon
  • Potato gratin - potatoes sliced thinly cooked in cream (gratin dauphinois)
  • Roasted carrots with butter and maple syrup (maple is more American/Canadian but it was a nice touch)
  • Sautéed mushrooms with shallots in a cream sauce (champignons à la forestière)
  • Roasted leg of lamb
  • Many cheeses
  • Simple salad with shallot
  • Ice cream cake in the shape of a log (bûche de Noël)
  • Christmas cookies with lemon icing
    Plus plenty of champagne and red wine

Then today we had:

  • Roasted chicken
  • Roasted small potatoes with rosemary
  • Mushroom torte
  • Arugula salad with fig, pears, walnuts and goat cheese
  • More cheese
  • More cookies
  • More cakes

I love cooking but now I’m exhausted and full
