I thought it would be helpful to put together some ideas for Christmas dinner. I’ll follow that up with a compilation of holiday treats for dessert or to give as gifts.

Let’s start with the traditional turkey dinner:

I had a request for some easy potluck sides:

I love taking Jicama Slaw to get-togethers, it is so unexpected and fresh.  Jicama Slaw (recipe here)

That should be a good start. You can access all the holiday recipes here.
