I usually have a mix of Beef and Turkey with all the trimmings :)
 
Gosh it makes me a bit sick thinking about it because on Christmas Day we have breakfast/ brunch with my mum so pancakes bacon etc. Then lunchtime we go to my dad and his side of the family and have a ham or turkey (we alternate each year) with all the trimmings plus dessert (a horrible boysenberry icecream crumble thing that my aunty makes.) Then we head down to Tim's parents place and have dinner with them which is turkey with all the trimmings and dessert again.
 
when we celebrate with Family we have Ham with trimmings

but this year we are doing our own and Im not sure yet what well have.
 
Im a vegetarian :( ... so xmas dinner is lost on me ... however i still struggle to see how it is any different from any ova roast :/ ?! but my oh will prob want Beef lol :) x
 
My dh usually wants chicken or turkey, but if we have my parents over it'll be salmon cut roast beef. I am veggy so either a veggy roast or aubergine bake from M&S.
 
Prime Rib and Turkey and all the trimmings and yummy pies!
 
Omg I have no idea.
MIL is diabetic and OH is the fussiest/ pickiest eater in the whole world.
Plus I don't really know how to cook lol. But I Miss and this year will be LO 1st Xmas so want to make a nice dinner.
 
We go out for a 4 course meal , so usually duck :)
 
We have Bacon Butties for breakfast,then a roast with ham,turkey and beef with trimmings at the in laws...then off to my grandmas for a buffee of cold meat etc :Dx
 
probably be having a mix of turkey, lamb and pork as my bro and sis are fussy eaters so we have a selection of meats lol. should be interesting though with a 3 month old how much of my xmas dinner i get to eat at once
 
We graze for most of the morning and evening, but we have a full-on Christmas dinner at lunchtime.
Since it's just the two of us, I buy a turkey roasting joint (usually Marks and Sparks) and we have it with roast and boiled veg, stuffing, pigs-in-blankets, and loads of gravy. Yum. After the roast I have a little single-serve Christmas pudding (DH doesn't eat it) with cream, and we get stuck into the fruit cake, chocolates, stollen cake, mince pies, mulled wine, mulled cider....I could go on....!
We usually have a bottle of fizzy wine for with Christmas dinner, but this year I'm hoping I won't be drinking!
 
We go to OH's mum in the morning with his family to open the pressies and she makes us bacon sandwiches and bucks fizz and when we go to my mums we have an italian feast. Antipasto like salami, parma ham, bread, olives, tuna, sardines, eggs and lots of other stuff as a starter on different trays of course lol
The we have a second starter of brodo with ravioli (soup) and then we have homemade escalops with french beans and soate potatoes and then we have 3 puddings lol (a choice of 3) Tiramisu, Fruit brulee or chocolate cakes..

Boxing day we go to OH mums for the day and we have a roast or cold meats and salady stuff..
 
We go to my mums every year and eat at about 4pm (usually lasts a while)
We start with a huge seafood platter and then we have turkey, roast potatoes, pigs-in-blankets, veg, gravy, stuffing etc. Followed by xmas pudding with brandy sauce. Then coffee and mints xx
 
I love Christmas dinner! You're all making me hungry!
 
I love Christmas dinner, it has to be Turkey, Duck or Goose for me. I also love following Jamie Oliver recipes, every year there is a different one. His roasties and stuffing last year were wonderful, Might have to adapt things this year because of LO sharing though.
 
I get so fat at xmas!
We have a cooked breakfast, then there's nibbles out all day when I get to my Mums then dinner which is usually turkey and pork and looots of other nice things. Then we all meet up as a family as someones house in the evening and there's MORE food!
 
im going to MIL this year yay!!! no cooking for me except maybe brekki in morning and probably go my mums on boxing day as she always does buffet thing
 
Turkey crown with all the trimmings. I love pigs in blankets! nom nom
