It is weird but also true that we hardly tend to challenge what our dining-table is going to look-like on a Christmas day! It is always the same old roasted turkey, some cookies, wine or a fruit-punch and of course the mandatory Christmas chocolate plum cake. It is like repeating the same old tradition over and over and over again! (Please don’t get us wrong! We aren’t trying to be a rebel without a cause a here!)
We understand that indulging in an elaborate meal is legit during Christmas time but we can also make it a perfect mix of some healthy starters followed by the traditional delicacies.
Going off-beat will not only give you some rest from preparing multiple dishes but it is also likely to give your guests a nice surprise. Here is how you can do it.
Serve Some Wraps Or A Bun-Omelette At First
This is one of the most obvious, filling and extremely nutritional starter to kick-start your Christmas party. You can go for a smaller, tightly rolled wrap, wrapped in a foil paper. Fill it up with nutritional goodness by selecting delicious picks such as Greek feta, peri peri hummus, iceberg lettuce, chicken, low fat mayo, peppers, and olives and top it up with sweet chilli sauce. Another delicious and interesting pick is bun omelette which is absolutely toothsome to devour on.
Calzone Pockets –An Interesting Dish To Add
We know the universal love for pizza and the undying craving to have it every day. Calzone pocket is an interesting concoction of the pizzas that is wrapped in small size. Doughy on outside, with enormous space for fillings inside, calzone is definitely your Christmas treat buddy.
Sandwiches—A Mandatory Delight
Be it a sub or a traditional sandwich, they can fix up your party meal by keeping you and your guests filled up, and is also considered a healthy option (For that you have to choose the ingredients wisely)! Fill up the sandwich with freshly cut veggies, low fat mayo, and toast it—this would be a delicious treat to serve.
Fruitcake Bars In The End
All celebrations end on a sweet note (even though you have quite enough of it in the middle). Sometimes having those extra slices of the traditional Christmas cake isn’t enough. So, when you are bidding adieu to your guests, offer them some fruitcake bars that they can take home as a complementary gift from your Christmas party.
