Big pot of soup with home-made scones or brown bread. (Made beforehand and frozen).
In the weeks before Christmas, Easter etc when I know we’ll have a crowd, I try to make and freeze a few quiches and a big lasagne. Lucky to have big chest freezer. Had 16 staying last year when DD got married!
Hope your Christmas goes well and they don’t eat all the satsumas.grin

I grew up with and continue a tradition of Christmas 'starting' with a festive high tea/early supper on Christmas Eve, with lunch on C Eve a help-yourself scratch affair. Suddenly realise that this year we will be ten, not all staying in the house. Can't be doing with ten people hunting around, making themselves sandwiches or scrambled eggs, devouring all the satsumas.... Loud resistance to altering the supper scenario, so am looking to invent a new lunch tradition. How do others get round this?
