Holiday Dinner Menu Thread!
Thought it might be a good idea for everyone to post what they are having for their holiday dinner so that others could get ideas.
We're hosting, so my thoughts are this:
Snacks/Appetizers:
nuts
cheese and crackers
olive loaf and hummus/babaganouj
Soup and Salad:
Vegetable soup with pastina
Mixed Greens with tomatoes, cuc's, red onion, avocado
Mashed potatoes
String Beans
Corn
Spinach Pie
Baked Ziti or Lasagna
Turkey or Roast Chicken
Pumpkin Pie
Cheesecake
Banana Muffins
Assorted Teas
Coffee
