My fiancee and I and our 18-month old son are spending Christmas alone together this year. She's from a Ukranian-Polish family that always has a big spread that features 12 meatless dishes on Christmas Eve. I told her I'd try and find something special that we've never had before to have on Christmas Eve. Any suggestions?

Go to the Rachael Ray website. She made a fabulous, easy to fix holiday meal on her show this week.

We have a traditional Ukrainian Christmas Eve Holy Supper as well, but as there are only my husband, me and our son, we don't do the whole 12 dishes. We have fish, pyrohy (perogies), holubtsi (cabbage rolls), kutia, and salad or something. It's nice to keep some of the traditional foods, and of course your fiance will probably want to keep it meatless for religious reasons.
It's wonderful to keep with ethnic customs, and you are lucky to have found a wonderful Slavic woman!

meatless dishes you say?. How about cookies and milk? LOL... You can have it with your 18 month old son and it would be something new. Unless you want to have toasts and coffee or herb tea ?
Enjoy your holidays

Stuffed peppers-easy to make-just nix the beef since you said meatless..(use rice and tomato sauce-your choice of seasonings)

Do what you want, but be sure to include sparkling cider for the children (and possibly yourselves). It's not Christmas without sparkling cider, as far as I'm concerned.

Do some research on the different meals from different countries that are tradionally eaten in the Seasonal holidays and then do one that is new to you :-)
