Xmas Lunch Ideas

On Xmas, we are having DH mother, grandma, grandma's FI and possibly DH's aunt.

What can I make for lunch?  We wont have a lot of prep time, and the day before we are gone as well.

Any ideas?

Re: Xmas Lunch Ideas

  • Could you get a precooked ham, some rolls and cheese and have sandwiches? That's what my dad's family always does for "lunch parties". Then have some chips, maybe a pasta salad or something to go with. HTH!

  • We host Christmas Brunch every year.... I agree with sandwiches -- but also how about lasagna (can be made in advance) or pasta salad, baked french toast, quiche, etc.
  • We are having my parents and Bri's mom for Christmas morning. I am planning to have an breakfast casserole of sorts.
  • Lasagna or any kind of pasta is always good!

    I'm not sure of the kind she makes but I make an egg casserole.  Really easy, I don't have the exact recipe with me but this is how I usually make it. I've tweeked it throughout the years. 

    1 dozen eggs

    2 cups milk

    1/2 stick butter (recipe calls for 1 stick but I made it with less one time and it was so much better, the butter just makes it more greasy to me.)

    1 loaf bread

    Shredded cheese 

    ham (I use lunchmeat ham).  You can also use sausage or bacon but thats too greasy for me. 

     

    Use a 9x13 greased baking dish.   Cut the crust off the bread and then slice the bread into 3's.  Layer the bottom of the dish with bread.  Then layer cheese and ham.  You can use anything really in this middle layer, veggies are also probably good. Then put another layer of bread.  Mix eggs, milk, and melted butter.  Pour over the bread.  Let sit overnight and bake the following morning/lunch.  Usually takes about an hour and 15 minutes depending on the temperature.
