Christmas is here! It is the weekend we’ve all been waiting for. Here are some meals to prepare in anticipation for the big day. It’s a long weekend so we have quite a list for you. Sit back and enjoy!

This weekend might be filled with meat, so you should try the roasted aubergines for your meatless blues. It’s well worth it and filling.

Asparagus and chive frittata is another good alternative. It’s good for hearty brunches!

For the long Christmas dinner wait, keep you family and other guests entertained with these cookie cutter mince pies.

A tasty dessert for the loved ones would be this Summer berry tart. This is perfect for after a big feast and only requires six ingredients. Winning!

For a tasty pre-dinner or lunch snack, make a chicken liver pâté with cranberry topping.

Dessert is calling, what are you thinking? Have this roasted pineapple with coconut ice cream. Perfect for when you get home from the beach.

Roast gammon with cherry and red wine sauce is the answer to your roast ideas. This will definitely have the family wanting more.

Braais are becoming popular for Christmas meals. Have these festive prawns cooked a la braai with a chilled white wine spritzer nearby!

Chocolate fudge nut pieces are good for the children who are impatiently awaiting the feast. One can also have them for dessert. Or tea time… or… whenever!
