I think this is my FAV ever panini .. it costs £6.40 at the local cafe but OMG worth it!

So this xmas Im going to make my own to use up the turkey

Turkey, Bacon (thick cut, non smoked, no rind and not crispy!), Mozzarella (non of that skinny crap!) and cranberry sauce...in a panini

Anyone got any other ideas for Christmassy lunches, drinks etc?

Smoked salmon and Philly bagels in our house

Love the sound of your panini xx

??what is that? I know that you can buy a tiger loaf in Asda but surely you need a filling such as turkey or smoked salmon

Lol, haha we call it tiger bread, filling umm maybe some salami and cheese. Or pate. OH made his own parma ham last year, which we all had for christmas

Char

Char, sounds lovely, I love everything you mentioned. Actually I love everything that Lisa mentioned for Christmas morning I love food (but not gingerbread)

I love food too, We are at the IL'S this year so My OH is doing his own duck for Christmas dinner, I am making my own chocolate cake and OH bro making his own pate. I love christmas its an excuse to pile on a few pounds lol.

If i have a big breaky i think it will fill me up to much, prob have sausage, egg on Tiger bread this year, with a options hot chocolate with whip cream on and a sprinkle of coco powder on the top

Char

I am soooo bad for pate ... I can eat a whole packet of Ardennes in one sitting...as a snack!

i did, i was talking about gingerbread! don't know about brekkie, probably shreddies, but more possibly chocolate:lol: i wonder if anyone got me a selection box?!

sadly im having to be very careful with food atm due to my newly formed ulcer (yum!) so erm...boring things. and gingerbread

a stomach ulcer?? oooh nasty if it is!!!

yeah it is, its absolutely vile so i am in a huff with all food

sausages wrapped in bacon ,,, only time of year i boher with them !om nom nom

i not to sure what to have for brekkie , we normally dont bother but might do some smoked bacon butties and square sausage in rolls for the boys

yeh sausages in bacon...got some today nom nom!

hmm yes I do find that, same with sandwiches, shop bought are great , mine are crap...so I bet it wont be as good but should still be tasty

Ooooo gingerbread. Loves it Mari - good work. We do a batch ever year... ish. Home made is much nicer isn't it?

I do my own non-boozy trifle - I hate the texture of the soggy trifle sponges so I get the 'ladies finger' ones and just put them on top, still crunchy. The trifle itself involves jelly, chopped up mini chocolate rolls, nice chopped up fruit (um grapes, pineapple, nectarines- what ever is to hand) oh crap just remembered I need a tub of custard (can't be naffed making my own, can I?) then squirty cream and plenty chopped up cadbury flakes on top. It's more of a sweet mush than a trifle

Ive done a roulade before too, simple sheet of mirangue (sp) with some cooked-up frozen red fruits (with some sugar / honey to sweeten and thicken -- cinnamon to make christmassey!) - all rolled up and more squirty cream to serve.

Yummy all sounds good, Noah has brought all the ingredients to do Santa some homemade cookies so shall be doing them Christmas eve night
