List of recipes for Christmas lunch.

During the Christmas holidays the best thing is to spend time with loved ones and family members. Usually a lot of time is spent at the table where gifts and typical dishes of this festival are shared with joy. Celebrating Christmas also means being able to prepare rich menus that amazes all members of your family.
On Christmas day what should not be missing is a beautiful table full of dishes which are not usually prepared on normal days.
What you need in addition to a lot of patience and creativity is to have recipes for Christmas lunch that are tasty.
There is no Christmas menu that does not start with a nice appetizer and end with the typical native delicacies so you will have to serve any type of course possibly accompanied by excellent wine. Tradition has it that among the recipes for Christmas lunch, dishes are mostly based on meat but nothing prevents you from following your tastes or those of your guests and therefore serving vegetarian or fish-based dishes.
Here is a beautiful collection of recipes for Christmas drafted specially to suite your taste:

• Savory mini puff pastry croissants:
It is traditional at Christmas for lunch to be based on meat. What better way than to open the meal with mini savory croissants of puff pastry and stuffed with salami and cheese! A quick and easy way to make an impressive appetizer, thanks to the croissant shape given to the bundles. The only initial difficulty may be forming the croissants, but don't worry, following the instructions will be much easier than you think.

• Canapes with caramelized pumpkin and Sicilian pecorino: If you want to bring to the table an original and vegetarian appetizer you can opt for delicious canapes with pumpkin and pecorino. The pumpkin is cooked, flavored and caramelized, then you just have to compose the canapés and bring them to the table.

• Salmon canapes:
If you prefer fish to meat you can opt for salmon which is well suited for the preparation of appetizers. These salmon canapes are made with croutons or crackers on which a ricotta and salmon mousse is placed. To make these croutons even more inviting is the smoked salmon placed on the mousse.

• Pasta and baked pumpkin: if you prefer a light first course for lunch on December 25th, you can opt for this pasta and pumpkin. It is very simple to prepare, it breaks with the rules of tradition but certainly does not disappoint. The pumpkin is cooked in vegetable broth and blended, then flavored with caciocavallo, cut into small pieces and everything is wrapped in the pasta, which is then cooked in the oven with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese, this will form a delicious crust on the surface.

• Shrimp ravioli: we could not miss a recipe of stuffed pasta among our proposals for the Christmas menu, the ravioli stuffed with prawns. A very simple recipe, in which the ravioli are stuffed with seared prawns and savoy cabbage: a balance of flavors. A simple dressing of only fresh tomatoes, garlic and parsley is all that matters.

Do have a wonderful Christmas celebration. Cheers !!!!!!
