Well 2020 has been quite a year! We’ve been learning, adapting, teaching, and we’ve become masters of our kitchens! We’ve been training all year for Christmas dinner so let’s do this!
Your Christmas celebration may be a bit smaller for 2020, but it can be big on flavour and full of enjoyment. Let’s put together a meal that is going to make the day memorable. Let’s enjoy Amazing Food for a Merry Christmas!
Christmas Menu Ideas for Small Groups
Christmas is going to be scaled back in size, but not in flavour! Turkey is still the number one go-to and we all love leftovers, the more the merrier! Not up for a turkey? Why not do a roast chicken, duck, or ham with smaller portions of the traditional sides. Pick a couple of your favourites and enjoy! The upside of not serving a larger meal is that you can make whatever you and your immediate family loves with no expectations. Christmas pizza? Why not? Let the new traditions rule the day!
Christmas isn’t just about the dinner, we have Christmas Eve, Christmas morning and Christmas afternoon to celebrate with delicious food!
