Question of the Week - What's on your Christmas Season Menu's?

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

Time for another Question of the Week -

 

What is on your menu for Christmas Eve and Christmas Breakfast and Dinner? Do

you have special traditions you do? What kind of cookies or other treats do

you leave out for Santa?

Do you make a Birthday Cake for Jesus?

Do you use your crockpots to make special dishes in, or to keep soups and hot

cider warm in?

 

Please share and inspire us all by telling us how you enjoy the Christmas season

with parties menu's and the above menus.

 

Thanks !!! You and your answers make this list a wonderful helping tool for all

of us!

 

Judy

On Christmas Eve we play board games and eat wine, cheese, bread and fruit. On

Christmas morning we'll have a big breakfast of South of the Border Bake (from

Diet for a Small Planet) muffins and fruit and mimosas. Then for dinner that

night I'll fix my wild rice casserole, baked butternut squash, a green vegetable

(whatever looks good at the co-op), Fried Spiced Tofu (also from Diet for a

Small Planet), cranberries, bread rolls and a nice Washington wine. For dessert

we'll have pumpkin pie.

 

My son flies in tomorrow and my daughter will drive over on the 24th. I'm really

looking forward to seeing them. So far they are only forecasting rain so that

will be good for traveling.

 

Happy Holidays everyone and enjoy some good veggie meals!

My husband makes beef bourgeon in the crock pot (I probably misspelled that)

for his work Christmas party each year. It is more work than I am willing to

do but I am glad he does it because it does taste good.

 

This year for my office party I was trying to think of something different.

I was trying to find an etoufee recipe for a crock pot without much success

until I found this - I use shrimp since I can get that and can't get

crawfish so it is a shrimp etoufee (sort of)

 

 

 

2 cans cream of mushroom soup

 

1 can RO*TEL (canned tomatoes with jalapenos)

 

2-3 ribs celery sliced

 

1 large onion diced

 

1 large green pepper diced

 

Some crushed garlic equivalent to 2 cloves

 

 

 

Put the above in the crock pot for on low for 5-7 hours (until the celery

isn't crunchy)

 

Add 1 - 2 pounds of pealed and cleaned shrimp (I cut the shrimp in half so

they are more " bite size " ) and the sliced green tops of 1 bunch scallions

(green onions) and cook for another hour.

 

 

 

Serve over rice. It is easy and impressive.

Can anyone tell me what recipe is that on the home page of this group? It looks

so good!  Janet
