As you gear up for Christmas dinner every year, your dinner with friends and family may get a bit redundant. So, why not switch it up and impress your dinner guests? If you’re feeling adventurous, keep reading for a short list of suggestions to spruce up your table this year.

Dinner Rolls

Dinner rolls are a fan favorite for a reason. Switch it up this year with potato rolls instead of plain. They’re fluffy and decadent and make an excellent option for use to make leftover sandwiches for the following days.

Stuffed Veggies

Everyone has heard of stuffed peppers or cabbage. This year, stuff something different; artichokes are a fun, delicious choice. It may look intimidating and complex, but once you master the prep, they’re a breeze.

Mashed Potatoes

Mashed potatoes are simple, but you can elevate them by adding some grated Manchego cheese, and your mouth will water all
day. The flavor of buttery potatoes with the savory, tangy, and slightly sweet notes of Manchego cheese is a match made in heaven. If you’re not feeling regular potato, swap them for sweet potatoes. It is a delicious, sweet twist on a traditional side and is perfect with brown sugar, and drizzled honey.

Festive Chicken

Swap out your ham for a full chicken, and stuff it with the warm flavors of Christmas, such as herbed butter, baked cranberries and oranges.
