Tidings of Comfort & Joy
A few last-minute dishes and & songs to add to this year's holiday vibes
It’s Christmas Eve. Well past the point of gift-buying or menu-planning. That being said, there’s always time for a few last-minute additions. And in the interest of keeping things short and sweet, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite holiday appetizers (great for Christmas snacking), Christmas-morning brunches, and holiday tunes.
Enjoy. Merry Christmas.
Christmas & Eve Apps
This salami-date-pecan-rosemary concoction by Kendra Vaculin at Bon Appétit is SO good and SO easy. Perfect thing to snack on with cocktails or sparkling water.
I made this caviar dip by Olivia Muniak last year for NYE and it is amazing.
Ina’s roasted figs with prosciutto are super easy and look sophisticated. Love the salty-sweet combo.
There’s a reason Alison Roman’s sweet-and-spicy nuts recipe has a perfect, five-star rating. No notes.
For Christmas Morning
Stuffed croissants with coffee…not much better than that.
Really more of a dessert than a breakfast but…it’s Christmas. Throw caution (and calories) to the wind.
Gluten-free and decadent.
I’ve shared this playlist before I add to it constantly, so it’s evolved. Enjoy while making Christmas dinner.
