What's for dinner on Christmas and Christmas Eve?

I have never made Lasagna but that sounds like a great tradition! I like the idea of using the eggplant or zucchini instead of noodles. Especially the eggplant.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

My. DH made me eggplamt lasanga when he made regulat lasamga for a family gathering with my daughter. Didnt miss the noodle. He coated the eggplant with almond flour, then prebaked it.

I'm making lasagna and baked ziti for my small group. I will probably make some kind of gluten free and dairy free Italian dish for me. It's not really what I want to eat but meh. It'll prob be a stouffers lasagna and homemade baked ziti. I don't want to over do it for something I can't even eat...sounds odd but it's how I feel.

I am going to try making a healthier GF & DF pudding or trifle type thing. I'm making a dirt cake for everyone else...and we're getting a pecan pie I think. We bought a cheesecake already.

As for Christmas Eve. We don't do anything special. I'll be making some of the food. I might make something for breakfast on Christmas Day...I saw a banana coffee cake that sounded good. That and a cup of coffee.

I just bought Stouffers Lasagna for the first time ever. We haven't tried it yet. Dirt cake is something I have never heard of. I am making a pineapple sheet cake. My mother's recipe that never tastes as good as hers ever did!

Merry Christmas and Happy New year!

IF I was home with family ( or business partner in past years ) I'd make the traditional Italian Feast of Seven Fishes meal Christmas Eve ( since that's still a Catholic fast ) .

Baked Stuffed Clam and Scallop Shells, Crab stuffed Mushroom Caps or Crabcakes , Smoked Whitefish Dip w crudités , Hungarian Spicy Paprika Fish Soup , Sole w Butter Almondine , Stuffed Baked Split Maine Lobster .

I know its a course short but the other is vegetarian Mac n Cheese or Veg Lasagna cuz not everyone enjoys seafood .

And of course I include plenty of vegetable side dishes like Mushroom Green Bean Casserole and dessert ( generally Tiramisu w Ladyfingers ) Guests can be counted on to bring liquor stuffed chocolates and Amaretto and Ouzo so there's plenty of after -meal sweets.

EVERYTHING is Fat free and made with Butter Buds .( freeze dried fat free butter solids ) .

The guests that want melted butter to dip the seafood in can have it but most choose not to - they choose the fat free And Great Tasting water-based Butter Buds dipping option !

Christmas Day someone BETTER invite ME lol .....

LOL! I sure hope some one invites you over for Christmas Day! I feel like a slacker compared to your menu. I am actually ordering the Prime Rib meals from a small diner because my father said it was the best he and my mom ever had years ago and he certainly does not want me to cook a Prime Rib as this year I have been informed that my Prime Rib roasts in the past have not been a hit with Dad. All this time, I thought otherwise but Dad is getting brutally honest in his older years.

My wife and I are going with our favorites and forgoing the traditional Christmas meal this year. I will be barbecuing T-Bone steaks and shrimp. There is snow on the ground and the threat of more to come but I don't mind grilling in any season. So it's steaks and shrimp, baked potato, grilled asparagus, and parmesan zucchini for us. Looking forward to it.
