Recipe Ideas For Your Christmas Feast

THE WOODLANDS, TX— It's Christmas Eve and if you are just now thinking about the menu for that amazing Christmas dinner, you're a little behind.

Don't worry, it's not a catastrophe especially if you have an idea or two of what you need to to blow the socks off that picky eater.

But if you don't know for sure what you are planning to serve, Patch and our friends at Taste of Home have a ton of awesome recipes that can help make your Christmas dinner memorable for all the right reasons.

Here are a few recipes that are both traditional and non-traditional:

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.
