having xmas with my mum, my sister and her crew ... + mums 2 foster kids going to be fantastic
thoughts so far are
roast turkey thigh and breast things
prawns
mum wants roast pork yes we do a big meal in generally 35+c heat LOL
ham
roast chooks ( we cheat here red rooster)
assortment of roast vegies
I would like caeser salad, a mixed salad, pasta and potata salad
followed by xmas cake (homemade), plum pudding (tin), trifle and most likely pavolova
then we will all fall on the floor from over eating
then boxing day we are down to gstone with IL's for a xmas feast wont be as good as mums though
I like the idea of a gourmet BBQ with roast vegies for something different. That would take some of the pressure off you too becuase DH could cook the meat.
What about a bbq? You could do some nice meats- ribs/steaks/gourmet snags, vegies- corn/mushrooms/onions/capsicum/eggplant, portugese chicken butterflied (yum!!), marinated meat and veggie skewers......and soooo much more. And it's cooked outside if it's hot!
We aren't cooking at all as we are going to visit the families. For breakfast we go to my mum and dads and they do a big brekky on the BBQ - bacon, eggs, little fat sausages, hash browns, tomatoes, muffins, toast, OJ, champers.
For lunch we are going to BIL's place, no idea what he's going to do.
Then for dinner we are going to MIL's place which will be a big spread (she's a great cook), probably seafood, roast meats and yummy veggies etc.
yes we do a big meal in generally 35+c heat LOL
