Holiday menu planning


Hi... I am planning my holiday menus early this year (miracle of miracles ha ha) and was hoping to get some of your opinions on 3 snafus I have encountered. A) tree-trimming day (probably first week of Dec): First I thought big fat subs, then I was thinking make your own pizza and garlic bread but neither are very festive; then I thought a big pancake breakfast, but tree trimming will most likely be in the afternoon. ???

This is so subjective. We generally trim our tree in the evening. Have a lighter meal and then have finger foods while working. Cheese balls, cruditˇs, sausage rolls etc. B) christmas eve: bread chunks with cheese fondue, but I need something *else* like a main course BUT I don't want to do meat in a fondue. What goes with cheese fondue to make it a complete meal?

Salad? Cheese and bread is heavy, so to me something lighter is in order. You have taken care of the protein and starch with the fondue. C) christmas breakfast: having a heavy dinner later that day, and we will have just had the fondue and whatever else the night before, so I'm thinking croissants or bagels with coffee and juice but is that enough? I just don't want to get into the heavy stuff like eggs, etc. (saving the appebreaste). And just bread sounds so plain for christmas morning....

You answered it yoruself by saying that you didn't want anything heavy. Continental is fine. You can add fruit cups without making it too heavy a meal. You can dress it up with Champagne Punch.
