Still Not Sure What to Make for Christmas Dinner?


My mother-in-law will be doing all the cooking this year, so I won't get to experiment with any holiday recipes. But maybe you will! Here's a menu that will satisfy many tummies.

Turkey
Easiest Way to Cook a Turkey -- Heavenly Homemakers

Bread
Holiday Dinner Rolls -- The Finer Things in Life
Grandma Ruth's Stuffing -- AllRecipes (the picture is awful, but I've made this and it was delicious!)

Salad
Cornbread Salad -- The MawMaw (or)
Layered Salad -- VW

Side Dishes
Crockpot Mashed Potatoes with Cream Cheese and Sour Cream -- A Year of Slow Cooking
Bacon-Wrapped Green Bean Bundles -- The Finer Things in Life
Broccoli and Rice Casserole -- Giving Up on Perfect
Simple Sweet Potato Casserole -- Happy Housewife
Scalloped Corn -- VW

Cranberry Sauce
Crockpot Homemade Cranberry Sauce -- A Year of Slow Cooking (or)
Cranberry, Cherry, and Walnut Chutney -- VW

Dessert
Molasses Cut-out Cookies -- Musings of a Housewife
Cake Balls -- Busy Girl Blog
Cherry Cheesecake Pie -- VW


For more delicious recipes, visit Tasty Tuesday at Balancing Beauty and Bedlam.

[P.S. For a while, the most-searched for phrase on this blog was "broccoli cheese dip." I do NOT have a recipe for that on the blog, but I ran across this one on Kraft foods the other day: Hot Broccoli Dip. So there ya go. Now all those who are dying for some broccoli cheese dip can make it!]

Perfect timing! I am still scrambling to come up with the final details for our meal. Of course, it makes it harder when we never know how many to plan for!

Enjoy your reprieve from the kitchen. One day everyone will be gathering at YOUR house and you'll be up to your elbows in one casserole after another! Hope y'all have a Merry Christmas. Give Libbie big hugs and kisses from her LifeWay Mawmaw. See you soon!
