Pams Christmas Platter: Simple solutions for stress-free feast
Christmas time is a joyous occasion when loved ones come together for quality time and to enjoy delicious food around the table. To make the festive feasting more enjoyable for everyone, why not lighten the load and create more moments with the people you love?
Opting for a new take on the traditional Christmas lunch could make the world of difference for the hard workers in the kitchen. Simply trade in the slow-cooked roasts and intricate salads for buffet-style platters and fabulous finger food. Prepping in advance and planning ahead makes the day less stressful, and more fun!
We love the idea of having a plate-less Christmas feast with handheld nibbles and brown paper lining the table for quick clean up. Covering the basics for the day by planning a relaxed menu can limit the time in the kitchen which means more time with your loved ones. Even better, get everyone to bring a plate – potluck style! We’ve all had a big year, so sharing the load brings a new and exciting way to enjoy Christmas, without the fuss!
