What's For Christmas Dinner?

Christmas time is a time for Family, Friends, Socializing, Reflection, Celebrating & Eating!
As Promised...
Here are my Favorite Foods for Christmas Celebrations. 
I change up recipes each year so no one gets bored, but keep those old standbys as they are too good to not enjoy at the holidays!

•  Main Meat- Ham(This year the kids want it with Dr. Pepper, so it is a bit of a twist)

  

  As seen on: South Your Mouth

• Delicious Sides

      Mashed Potatoes

Found on: PocketChangeGormet.com

Who doesn't love fluffy mashed potatoes and gravy for dinner? In our home, it is a Sunday night favorite. This recipe twist is saved for Holiday Dinners because of the richness of the sour cream, heavy cream, and butter.

      Green Bean Casserole 
When the menu planning starts, this comes on the list even before Turkey does! I know this is an old standby, but all the kids love it! Campbells Green Bean Casserole

Hot Broccoli-Cheese Dip

This dip is great with flat or crusty pieces of bread or crackers! Delicious! And you can substitute cheese for cream cheese.  This year we are having it to dip our broccoli, carrots, celery, & peppers in on the Veggie trays!

 Deviled Eggs with ranch and bacon

A yummy alternative to the regular deviled egg recipe from "I Heart Nap Time".
 

       Dinner Rolls

 These are our favorite yeast rolls, by far! Use Rhodes Frozen Rolls HERE
We use frozen yeast roll dough and make according to package directions.

• Drinks *bought and chilled*

       Cranberry Ginger Ale 
       Sparkling Cider

• My Favorite Holiday Dessert: 

            Death by Chocolate Trifle
  
If you like brownies, chocolate pudding, and whipped cream, you will LOVE this Trifle!
