      Leftovers and junk food. Because my kids are from blended families, we celebrate with one family in traditional Ukrainian Christmas style, and our “Christmas Day” meal is a turkey dinner with all the fixings on the first day everyone is home from their other commitments ??

      For Christmas, my family always use to have Turkey & Dressing. When my passed away not long ago, my Mom was diagnosed with dementia & a neurological disorder. So we all had to learn to make the Turkey & Dressing as Mom did. My Mom has grown worse this year, requiring more of my care. This Christmas we are just having some small finger foods.

    Our family switches our meals every year, as my son is our grilling chef master. This year he is grilling Salmon and Trout as appetizer with a mixture of squash and zucchini on the side. Then the main meal will be grilled BBQ Chicken, Mac&Cheese, Green Beans, Corn on the Cob, Slaw, and Yeast Rolls. Dessert will be an assortment of Christmas cookies and a Red Velvet Cake.

    I usually serve a turkey breast with mashed potatoes, carrots and broccoli, with dressing and cranberries as we are a small group. This year, however, my nephew’s three young children will be with us for our noon meal so I will be making a maple-glazed ham with honey-glazed carrots and garlic mashed potatoes. We will also have lots of baked goods around for dessert. We also get together with my brother and his family after Christmas when my brother always traditionally buys us all a feed of Chinese food.

    Normally, our Christmas dinner always includes ham, chicken and rice, chicken salad, rolls, collard greens, macaroni and cheese, turkey, and a variety of desserts including blueberry bubble, German chocolate cake, cherries jubilee, chocolate chip cookies, friendship bread, and sometimes punchbowl cake. But this year might be something like bouillabaisse because we’ll be in Montreal for Christmas!!

    We always do a potluck style for our Christmas dinner as there is usually close to 15 people for dinner. My husband makes the best gravy so he is always in charge of that. We do serve the traditional fare though. Turkey, stuffing (meatless), mashed potatoes and gravy. Throw in one veggie side dish and a light dessert and you’ve got our meal.

    Our Christmas dinner is often a do-again of our Thanksgiving dinner: roast turkey, herb stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, roasted sweet potatoes, ambrosia salad, cranberries, and a pickle and olive tray. We have fairly often added or subbed a ham, in which case an uber-sweet pineapple dressing is also added. Cannot forget the pumpkin, apple, and pecan pies with sweet vanilla whipped cream! Everything from scratch.

    Food was such a huge part of Christmas for so long but I’ve had so many health issues that most of the things I used to cook make me so sick now 🙁 So Christmas is more about the people than food for me. We will have a ketogenic meal with delicious turkey, delicious vegetables, and a nice fat source haha. But I will indulge in a glass of Prosecco because it is fairly low carb ?

We are having salad, prawns, calamari, eel (not for me), antipasto with leg ham, homemade lasagna, meat, fruit, cake and hopefully that’s it. I can only fit in my stomach a third of it, but it’s their tradition and I respect it.

    With our parents gone for 30 years now my Sister and I have kept the same tradition we grew up with. My last dinner was for 26 and then we switched to my sister’s house because she had 3 small kids. We have shared in the preparation of dinner ever since. Mom was Ukrainian and so I am the head cabbage roll maker always! We always had turkey mostly but now that her kids are grown and have friends sometimes she does a ham and we have contributions from the kids and we call this dinner a “potluck”. No luck involved because we tell everyone what to bring – LOL! No matter the food it is just special that everyone be together and we are all happy.

Of course ANY dinner we have together I am the head cabbage roll (or holopgee) maker and continue making them just as our Mom did. I am bringing a host of desserts, marinated and roasted turkey breasts – nobody knows that one yet, I just told them “mystery meat” but have I ever failed you? “Not once Aunty” my nephews say – LOL! Grown, but still good boys! They are both chipping in with a salad and appetizer and my neice with her own selection of baking. Thank goodness, I need a rest, I’m tired – LOL! It’s just wonderful when the family can all be together.
