to make for your BIG Christmas dinner
ham, sweet potatoes, rolls, green bean casserole, all kinds of “comfort foods!”
Turkey all the way!!!
I will be visiting family for Christmas and I usually bring rice and drinks
I am going to my grandma’s for Christmas. They are cooking a bug dish!
We plan on having a shrimp dish. Something different from the norm.

I plan to make a big ham dinner!
I always make a ham with a gingersnap and honey mustard crust!
we will eat turkey with all the trimmings:) with all sorts of pies for dessets…yumyum!
My mom’s making dinner…ham I think. Whatever she makes, I KNOW it will be delicious!
I get lucky and get to go to my Aunt’s house, but I usually bring the carrots and a dessert, this year I am thinking a flourless chocolate torte.
Dinner is at MIL’s house, so I’m not sure! I have yet to get my assignment
I actually will be going to my grandmother’s for xmas dinner & we have decided this year that we are going to do a potluck where everyone brings a dish instead of her making the dinner.
I plan on going to my mother’s! LOL!
We’re having ham for our christmas dinner.
We are having a nice ham with the usual extras like green beans and yummy yeast rolls. It’s almost like Thanksgiving only with ham instead of Turkey! I LOVE Sav-A-LOT and make it a game to see how much I DONT spend on the weeks shopping
we’ll be eating roast this Christmas

we plan to have ham, collard geens and yams.
We are hoping to have ham and hash brown casserole and pumpkin pies and ice cream!!
I’m going to my mother’s for dinner so I dont have to cook. But I am bringing my famous deviled eggs that my brothers like so well

I’m baking a ham, mashing potatoes, serving brussels sprouts (yes, we love them) and making rolls. My husband is in charge of doing the gravy (his is the best!). I will probably bake a cake for desert. Maybe death by chocolate. Though, it could be leftover desert from Christmas Eve. That is traditionally red velvet in our house.
I am also planning on fixing a ham for Christmas dinner. I will have my son and daughter-in-law and granddaughter spending a few days here, so a ham is easier to fix. I plan on having other side dishes, such as sweet potatoes and macaroni and cheese. A salad, rolls and desserts, of course. Happy Holidays to you and your family!
My family and I always do a big italian dinner on Christmas Eve then Christmas morning we make a huge yummy brunch! This gift card would big a huge help!
Thank you for this great gift for all of us. Well since im from Nicaragua we do our cooking different from the traditional. Im going to do a traditional “YUCA CON CHICHARON & ensalada de rrepollo” wich is yuka root with pork grins and cabbage. its real good. and also were having platano frito con crema. wich is platains with sour cream. all this is real good. and since my husband is Mexican im going to make tamales of chiken, and sweet ones with raisens they are the best. thank you and happy holidays
I plan on making a ham with homemade noodles

Standing rib roast, a Christmas Tradition in our house.
A ham with pineapple sauce!!
I will be going home for the holidays and can’t wait until we make the honey glazed ham, mashed potatoes, deviled eggs, and lots of desserts.
I would love to have a nice christmas dinner for my family at home this year. I would be able to buy fresh fruits and veggys and a nice ham for us all. Its so impossible to get the basics almost lately.so extras would be a gift for my family in itself this time.
We plan to have ham, turkey, sweet potato casserole and pumpkin pie!
Turkey and Ham, with fixins.
I love Christmas dinner. We plan to make a ham, potatoes, homemade rolls, pies, sweet potatoes, and green beans. Not to mention all the other great treats we will have around. Thanks!

We plan to have ham and green bean casserole!
i have a one month old baby who was almost a month early.as far as i am concerned,we could eat top ramen for x-mas meal and i would b happy.my family is all safe and healthy and that is what i am thankful 4 this holiday season.merry x-mas 2 all.
I want ham and other traditional foods. Spaghetti, salad, bbq and more are also good
Wow – everyone likes to serve Ham!! I’ve done that every year. Perhaps I should make something crazy like egg rolls just to say I made something out of the ordinary.
Well…. The sound of egg rolls just doesn’t make my mouth salivate like a spiral honey ham does. I guess that means I’ll be fixing up the usual. Ham, cheesy potatos, JELLO-(of course) and homemade rolls.
Ham and turkey!!
I plan on having something easy maybe chilli
No special dinner for us but I will be doing crab dip and sausage balls over the next several weeks.
This will be my first year making Christmas dinner by myself! We’ll probably do ham or turkey and all the usual stuff.
Dinner is always Chinese food-homemade. My Dad started the tradition, sad…he won’t be here this year he’s in Canada but I am cooking anyways
This Christmas dinner will be a fun one, I’m currently pregnant with baby #3 and she is due December 30 so who knows if I will make it to Christmas. I’m a Marine wife and 2700 miles away from anyone I know to help me so I’m currently trying to budget and menu plan for a meal I’m not sure if I can make! haha! My super great hubby has volunteered to do most of the cooking this year so I can rest and relax. He has a few ideas, mostly a pineapple, brown sugar glaze ham, a few veggie casseroles and the regular side dishes. We’re hoping to freeze some left overs for after baby is born!
I plan to help my Gram make our traditional xmas dinner…Swedish Meatballs with home-made noodles, mashed potatoes, shrimp as an appetizer (with the sauce that my mom and aunt hoard!) and plenty of pies and treats!
my husband wants a turkey for christmas, we didn’t have one for thanksgiving, we had a ham instead so for christmas it’s turkey. Kind of backwards i know, lol.
We are lucky…my MIL is having us over for dinner! They are planning the traditional ham and potatoes, yams and turkey, etc. They also always have shrimp.
Very Nice. My son is struggling financially, I would love to give this to him.
I don’t cook for Christmas at all. It is a lazy day for just me, my husband and the kids. We will order a ham and warm up a few side dishes that are precooked.
We actually make a HUGE breakfast on Christmas. (then we visit my brothers house and he does dinner)
I make:
Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, Sausage, Biscuits, muffins, pancakes, coffee, hashbrowns
I think we are going to do seafood this year. We will have shrimp, crab legs, fish and some other things. We are still getting it together.
Definitely planning a ham dinner with mashed potatoes, roles, and all the trimmings!! Yummmmmm.
Hopefully we will going to my brother’s house so will bring 2 cheesecakes and a corn souffle.
We always gather together in my family and have one big meal. Since I’m going to school for baking, I’m always in charge of the desserts. So I will be making loads of pie’s and fudges and cookies for my family for Christmas dessert. :]
Turkey and all the trimmings, and maybe a shrimp coctail for my daughter
we will probably have ham for christmas!! YUM!!
We have a special brunch casserole for breakfast and then for our 2nd meal of the day with do soup and muffins, cheeseball, crackers and a special dessert. We have our big Christmas Day meal with my big family Christmas.

My wish/hope would be that I would be eating tamales, but in reality it will be turkey.
Ham, turkey, and all the trimmings so this giftcard would sure help a girl out!
Like many of the others that have commented…we are also planing on a yummy ham dinner!
being ever so frugal that I am, purchased two Turkeys at Thanksgiving when they were 40 cents a pound and had a $2 coupon
so we will be having Turkey again ..not that I mind!
While we are going to my IL and I’ll make what I am assigned and eat what’s there.:(
DH will most likely make oyster stew at some point to which is more of a tradition with just DH, our sons, and me.
I don’t have to prepare a big meal for the holidays. Since we usually travel to two or three gatherings and have two small children, our families usually ask us to provide things like drinks, rolls, etc. We sure do appreciate this break
The gift card would still come in super handy for the items we do provide.
Thanks so much! Love your blog!
We are planning on london broil, brussels sprouts, tomato bruschetta, and salad. Nontraditional but really yummy. AND, I love to shop at save-a-lot!
We like to serve Spiral sliced ham, Augratin potatoes, (or some other potatoes) broccoli with a cheese sauce, orange cranberry sauce, rolls, pie for dessert. My Husband really likes to have a standing rib roast on christmas eve, if we got the gift card we might be able to do that.
We will be having ham with mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, crescent rolls and brocolli caseerole and corn.
My son has requested what he calls a “feast” this year which is all the traditional holiday foods. Turkey,ham,stuffing,mashed potatoes,green bean casserole,praline topped sweet potato casserole,pumpkin pie,pecan pie and spiced cranberry cheesecake.
We usually go simple and have brunch. Eggs, bacon, cinnamon rolls and fruit. It’s a fun change.
Probably turkey w/trimmings and family for the blessed holiday!
We will be doing beef with a cherry chutney, that is made of chopped dried cherries, roasted red peppers, onions, green chilies, cilantro, Cherry preserves, garlic, and balsamic vinegar.
I am planning to cook a pork roast with some carrots, potatoes and rolls.
We always have both ham & turkey with scalloped potatoes, veggies, rolls ect & 2 or 3 desserts
Ham..and whatever else I get on sale!
We will be having our spanish tradition of rice with beans, pork, pasteles, potatoe salad, lasagna, and flan for dessert!
We eat plant-based foods so our big meal will be:
greens, cornbread stuffing, potatoes, scalloped
tomatoes, and fresh fruit salad and cut veggies.
We had a ham that we purchased from Save-a-lot for Thanksgiving…it was bomb! It will be a ham again. What a great giveaway!
It’s My husbands birthday so its birthday cake and icecream at my house. We will follow that with a more traditional christmas dinner with ham and the works. (He still will moan that he never gets a party)
I am still planning on what we are going to do for dinner. This year will be the first with our TWO girls, and the first away from all of our extended family who will all be out of state. A time to start a few new traditions and a few old ones close to the heart.
We have started the tradition of lots of finger foods all day long and pizzas in the evening. We normally have a nice big Christmas breakfast.
I’m cooking brunch! I’m still deciding but i think I’ll start with quiche!
I plan to make a ham, cheesy potatoes, veggies, rolls, and a yummy dessert – not sure which one yet!
I’m going to make Thanksgiving meal for Christmas basically! Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and green bean casserole. Yum, yum I can’t wait!
Somehow, somewhere along the way, we started doing tacos for Christmas dinner. I can’t even remember why but we will be hugemongous taco salads and tacos for dinner. We top that off with more traditional pies and pumpkin rolls for desserts- but around here tacos are the way to go on Christmas!
There will definitely be Ham at our Christmas Dinner!
I am planning on making a ham and all of the trimmings! I love save-a-lot! I have one a few blocks from my house and shop there frequently.
I love your site. Thanks., Mary
Well I plan a smithfield spiral ham this xmas, with mashed tators, green bean casserole, buttered corn, rolls and butter, with cranberry jellied sauce on the side. We will have the usual veggie tray with ranch, and of course the wonderful, pies, cookies and candies for after dinner nummies…I can smell it all now
Tamales!!! they are a must in our house during Christmas! I have one Save alot store but have not made it there yet!
Thanks for the wonderful give-away!
We plan to have ham & turkey with all the usual “fixins” for Christmas dinner. I can’t wait!
