Re: Christmas dinner menu

We start with a huge antipasto platter full of meats, cheeses, olives, marinated artichokes, etc.
That is served with Italian bread, & bread sticks.

Stuffed Mushrooms & Stuffed Artichokes.

Then we have a Prime Rib Roast, Scalloped potatoes, Asparagus wrapped in prosciutto, Burnt Broccoli, Whisky Glazed Carrots.

We toned it down through the years. We used to do a first course of Manicotti, with sauce & meatballs but it was wayyy to much food!

Our dessert is usually a big tray of Italian pastries and a platter of my Christmas cookies, Espresso, & Coffee.
