Christmas is coming in a couple of weeks. Everywhere at the shopping malls and eateries I see Christmas trees, big and small. But no, I have not been invited to any Christmas parties yet. Bah!
Nah, it is alright because I am admittedly not a party person. I'm pretty boring actually, preferring to stay at home instead of having a night out.
So for those of you hosting a Christmas party, what are you cooking and/or baking? (Or are you outsourcing hah..hah...)
With that in mind, I have decided to write a post that takes very little effort. I shall suggest to you what to cook/bake/roast, OK?
Easy stuff, I promise.
Roast Chicken #1

ReplyDeleteBlessed Christmas to you too, Elaine!
DeleteYeah, I'll have a Christmas gathering with my siblings and still thinking what to cook or what to tapao, LOL
ReplyDeleteStill got time. I always choose the easy ones hah..hah...
DeleteNot going to hold any party this year. Used to do it twice, I cooked for both occasion.
ReplyDeleteThis year, hubby said to have Christmas meal outside. We shall see.
So much more convenient to eat put. No need to sweat in the kitchen.
DeleteAh, delicious food you have listed here in this post. Why don't you host a Christmas party for your family with these dishes. I am sure that they would love it.
ReplyDeleteOh no. So tiring lah LOL! I am gearing up for Chinese New Year. Gotta conserve my strength for that. LOL!
DeleteOh dear!!! I have not given it a thought! Maybe we will go for some Christmas dinner outside, we'll see.
ReplyDeletePayung! LOL!
DeleteAh, your suggestions make a complete meal...got main, got salad, got potatoes, got dessert. ^_~ I agree, when hosting parties at home, roast chicken is definitely the fail-safe main as it is a very 'forgiving' protein to cook...you can't overcook it like steak! Yup...easy stuff...until the last one...a whole cake? O_o Nowadays when I hear the words 'cook for Christmas parties'...I cringe! >_< P/S: That must be one of the saddest aka poorest decorated trees I've had seen! :D
ReplyDeleteI know.... It can be very stressful cooking for a party. That tree was at Bookxcess@Starling hee..hee...
Deletei have no christmas parties to attend either! will just be going out for a few family dinners and friendly reunion lunches at several eateries in kl, and it looks like there'll be roast turkey on the menus - i hope the turkeys will be as tasty as your roast chicken recipes! :)
ReplyDeleteA small dinner with family and friend is the best bet. I prefer a more intimate setting rather than a big bash. Strangely, I have yet to eat turkey!
DeleteWe're hosting a neighborhood gathering on Saturday, yikes! I'm making a beef tenderloin and a couple desserts. To make it easy, everyone is bringing a heavy appetizer. Love all your suggestions---there are a couple salads that caught my eye, and we love those smashed potatoes!
ReplyDeleteBeef tenderloin and desserts sound fantastic! A potluck is the best way to go :)
Deleteimpressive and colorful! im drooling here....
ReplyDeletehee..hee...
DeleteSuch beautiful & yummy inspiration, dear! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteWalauEh!! Your menu made me lau nuar! Please invite me to your Christmas dinner and I will come as Santa Claus!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I am not into parties so poor Santa Claus got to go to other people's house hah..hah...
DeleteWah! I love your delicious Christmas menu. Haven't thought of Christmas dinner yet. Wait and see first. Lol!
ReplyDeleteBest to eat out I think. All the washing up I feel so tired LOL!
