Christmas Dinner 2008


All the local relatives were out of town this year, so it was just the four of us (plus my mom) for Christmas--I got to plan the entire menu!

  • Two Potato Spinach Terrine
  • Marmite Gravy [Note: This is not my favorite gravy, but for some reason my mom really likes it. Marmite/Vegemite (very popular in Aus/NZ, as I'm sure you know) is a yeast paste kind of reminiscent of beef flavor...in the US you see it commonly on packaged foods as "hydrolyzed yeast."]
  • Cranberry Rice Pilaf
  • Mushroom Tarts
  • Maple Glazed Parsnips
  • Braised Petite Green Beans
  • Oatmeal Bread (not pictured, fresh from the oven--thanks to my husband the baker)
  • Veggie Tray (not pictured)
  • Pumpkin Pie (not pictured)
