Jesus Supper


Our traditional Christmas Eve dinner began when I was a little girl. We celebrate with birth of Jesus Christ by eating foods that he may have eaten by candlelight without utensils and served on wooden dishes or stoneware.

Typically we serve:
salmon
beef summer sausage
assorted cheeses
pita bread
grapes
olives
nuts
sparkling cider

Occasionally we've served:
grape juice
apple juice
baked chicken
beef jerky
rolls
dried fruits

It's surprisingly filling and delicious and my favorite way to spend Christmas Eve with my family.
