Our annual Christmas Eve dinner has always been guests’ choice. And has become tradition, Spinach Lasagna is the requested main course.
We are really looking forward to getting together this year, especially with the newest addition. We are still deciding between a movie or a board game, but I have both on hand, so we don’t have to decide until after dinner.
On the board:
- Spinach Lasagna
- Collard Greens with Bacon
- Garlic Cheese Bread
- Ice Cream Sundae Bar
This recipe takes about an hour to prepare and another hour to cook. It easily serves 6 – 8. I make this the day before and refrigerate. It will need additional cooking time to bring the center up to temperature.
