So with the help of Pinterest I was able to form my Christmas night menu. I like to have something out for everyone to snack on when they first arrive so I thought I'd keep it simple with crackers and brie and maybe a little fruit. For dinner we're having crockpot potato soup (which I've never made before so I hope it's decent) and ham and cheese sliders.
I think that for the soup I'm going to add ham instead of bacon to make it a little more hearty. I'm also eliminating the poppyseeds and onions from the sliders since I'm not sure they'd be a hit with the kiddos, and I'm basically just going to pour melted butter over the top before baking. I'm also doing one pan with swiss cheese and one with american to make sure that everyone is happy.
For dessert my mother-in-law and sister-in-law are bringing something sweet, and I grabbed a Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake which is currently in our freezer. I also have the gingerbread men I baked and decorated completely on my own the other night since someone who shall remain nameless decided he was no longer interested . . . ahem . . . Andrew.
Obviously this is going to be an extremely "cheesy" meal. No pun intended. But I figure if you want to make most people happy just add cheese and butter, and you have a hit.
Anyone care to share their Christmas Eve/Day meal plans?
