Christmas Food

I'm finally getting around to posting about our Christmas a week later. It's been a crazy busy week and now I'm sick with a cold but at least I'm home with my husband blogging and baking bread.
Unfortunately I failed to take pictures of anything other than food but it was a big part of the day so here is what we ate! All of my recipes I pulled out of my stacks of Cooking Light magazines so I'm just posting links instead of typing out four separate recipes.

Brunch

One of the positives of living in a very cold climate is that if you forget to chill the champagne over night in the fridge it only takes 10 minutes of sitting outside to chill.

I set the table with the finest!

We started out with a Citrus & Kiwi Fruit Salad with Pomegranate Seeds and

Savory Bread pudding with Goat Cheese
I would recommend adding a little salt and more goat cheese to the recipe.

Freshly squeezed mimosas.

Dinner

Candied Walnut, Pear & Leafy Green Salad
By far the best salad I've made...amazing!

Sauteed Carrots with Sage & Pork Loin Stuffed with Herbed Bread Stuffing

I did modify the stuffing by leaving out the mushrooms, sausage and carrot and stuffing it inside the butterflied pork lion instead of in a casserole dish.
