We're celebrating Yule tomorrow instead of Christmas, so maybe you're wondering how you enjoy the festivities without refined sugar.
The shops are full of mince pies, chocolates, nibbly things and sauces, all chock full of sugar (not to mention the other nasties).
Here's the menu for my daughter for tomorrow - she's so excited as she chose it all herself!
Starter
Egg mayonnaise with salmon and melba toast
Main
Turkey
Roast potatoes
broccoli
carrots
mashed swede
gravy
Apple juice and fizzy water to drink
Pudding
Choice of:
Christmas pudding
Baked chocolate cheesecake
Profiteroles
Darling daughter has also been busy making cones to hang on our tree which are full of sugar-free sweets and chocolates for her to nibble on. Along with Cheese and biscuits and vegetable crisps to pick at in the evening I don't think she is going to go hungry or feel deprived; do you?
If you want any specific recipes, drop me a comment and let me know! Have a wonderful celebration yourself; let me know what you're eating; I always love to be inspired by other people's menus.
Got a recipe for that baked chocolate cheesecake? It sounds good... :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Milla,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your interest. I'll raid my memory banks - I'm pretty bad at writing things down, much to my husband's annoyance.
Give me a few days and I'll see what I can do ;)
