What's for Christmas Dinner?: Festive Meal Plans, Big-Day Timings, Essential Shopping Lists

I had this book on preorder so I was lucky to receive it on the day it was released. As a massive Taming Twins aka Sarah Rossi fan girl, and proud owner of What's for Dinner and Whats for Dinner in One Pot, both of which get used in our household for meal planning weekly. I had to add Whats for Christmas Dinner to the trio. Not only does the book contain numerous recipes from the perfect turkey, and trimmings to puddings... hello wreath pavlova, and slow cooker chocolate orange pudding! There is also a planning chapter with shopping lists, christmas day timings, and tips and tricks. There is also a gorgeous chapter on homemade festive food gifts.The book is amazingly inclusive several vegetarian recipes in the main body of the book, and at the back a 6 page dedicated table of dietary adaptations detailing each recipe and if it can be adapted to gluten free, dairy free, vegan, vegetarian and nut free.This is clearly a book made with a lot of thought, love and care. A book I am sure won't just be for Christmas, but can be enjoyed all year long! I can't wait to get cooking!

I’ve followed Sarah for years on Instagram and love her recipes. This book is so handy to have all her Christmas recipes in one place. The recipes seem totally achievable and not overly complicated! I really like the Christmas Day timings pages.The only thing missing is a photo of her dog eating the Christmas ham on page 108😆

Taming Twins does it again - I am SO impressed with the level of detail and support this book provides. The timing, the oven plan, the random stuff shopping list - it’s like having Sarah in the kitchen sorting me out. Having used her turkey and ham recipes from the website last Christmas, and also being a regular user of her easy dinner recipes, I was always going to like her new book. However it surpasses my expectations and has made me feel so much more confident about cooking from scratch on this stressful day. If I had one teeny complaint it’s that her brilliant recipe for Boxing Day bubble and squeak tray bake isn’t in there - but I’ll just use the website for that one! Well done Sarah, this is brilliant.

This book is absolutely fantastic. Photos are brilliant, clear instructions and short cuts and the best food ever. It's the only cookbook I have ever read where I've turned every page and said ... yes I'll make that and that ...etc AND makes me feel confident. I can't wait. A cookbook for 'Normal' people with low to middle cooking experience. Thank you so much.🎄🥳

I’m so looking forward to planning my Christmas around the information in this book. Fantastic ideas and personally for my family.all of the recipes will be a hit , as I grave some difficult family members to please. Thank you for making this Christmas a pleasure rather than a chore
