What to serve for Christmas dinner?

Question

I've only had Turkey, with mashed potatoes, gravy, and that sort of thing, but hubby asked for ham this year. I have no idea what to pair with ham.

So, what I'm getting is that everything else can be the same, just ham instead of turkey. Good, because I love all that stuff and green bean casserole is a definite!

Answer 1

You can still serve the mashed potatos etc. The best dessert with ham is something pineapple based, though. My sister always serves ham, and she serves everything else that mom does with the turkey. Or, just serve what you do at Easter (if you have ham then)

Answer 2

Potato salad is easy too. Serve a vegetable tray with broccoli, carrot sticks, tomatoes, and all. Fix potato casserole instead of the pot. salad. Deviled eggs. Corn casserole. White northern beans. slaw or salad. So much more to add. have a great Christmas!

Answer 3

I make on christmas the same thing as thanksgiving...only ham as the main meat instead of turkey.

Answer 4

just serve the turkey and the ham together for christmas .
that's what i 'm serving .plus the mashed potatoes , carrots, some people put turnup with the carrots. don't forget the stuffing you have to have stuffing,it's a must.
