MVSNYCi'm italian, so i'll try to paint the picture of how it goes down:
christmas eve, new jersey-
---seafood extravaganza (no meat). calamari, mussels, cod, stuffed peppers, stuffed mushrooms, shrimp, broccolli rabe, squingilli, hallibut.
christmas day, long island-
---antipasto course: stuffed peppers, caprese (mozzerella, tomato, basil), provolone, sausage, olives, procsuitto bread, artichokes, roasted peppers, asparagus, stuffed mushrooms.
***open gifts during this break***
---pasta course: lasagna, meatballs, hot sausage.
---meat course: this is gonna sound funny, but we were so stuffed, we decided not to continue with our regularly scheduled meat course, so instead, my aunt ordered a 6' hero, and we "picked" on that until our dessert course.
---dessert course: cannoli, spfigidels, cheesecake, brownies, coffee...
how's that all sound?
happy holidays!
