Christmas Dinner Recipes to Grace Your Table

HOUSTON, TX— The shoping is finished, and the presents are wrapped and under your family's Christmas tree.

Now, it's time to make the grocery list and head off the the super market to get all the ingredients for your Christmas dinner.

Hopefully you know what the family is having.

Maybe it’s turkey, ham, or maybe an English roast.

Whatever is on the menu, there’s always room for a few more culinary ideas, and these mouth watering recipes are sure to please any palate.

Here are a few recipes that are both traditional and non-traditional from Taste of Home:

Bacon and Broccoli Salad: You'll want to serve this family-friendly side dish year-round. The broccoli gets a big-time flavor boost from bacon, toasted pecans, dried berries and a mayo dressing

Herb Crusted Prime Rib: A holiday favorite for a lot of families, and it doesn’t take long to prepare.

Holiday Crown Pork Roast: This beats ham and turkey hands down.

Christmas Cauliflower Casserole: This creamy casserole is filled with tender cauliflower and topped with a sprinkling of crispy herb stuffing.

Christmas Tortellini Soup: Who doesn’t love tortellini, with spinach and that creamy broth. Where’s my nap?

Traditional Holiday Stuffing: If you don’t have a family recipe, this one here will do the trick.

Pomegranate Glazed Green Beans: You know this just sounds good.

Cranberry Salad: This is similar to the recipe passed down over six generations in my family.

Eggnog Sweet Potato Bake: This is one we gotta try.

Pecan Pie: If you’re in Texas, you cannot go wrong with pecan pie(pronounced puh-con), like ever.
