different recipes - By: P. K. Allan, 19 Jan 2008 
i tried the mincepies which were a great new taste with the marzipan in, I also copied the christmas cake with the stockings around - again a grea idea. Also did the shortbread recipe but decorated them in my own way but also lovely. Oh & I did the Christmas pudding recipe with the grated butter!! yes quite tricky but well worth it best pudding I've ever had & even when I made it.
Simple, easy and delicious Christmas Food - By: josie82, 13 Oct 2007 This newest book in Good Food Magazine's '101' series has plenty of dishes for over the Christmas season. Recipes include edible gifts such as truffles, Christmas cakes & other bakes, party drinks & nibbles, chutneys & dressings, starters, the main Christmas feast, alll types of vegetable accompaniment & of course, sweets & desserts.
The recipes are varied but most are simple & quick & could be made by a novice cook, an expert cook & everyone in between. There are even recipes that you could make with the kids.
There are a few vegetarian options for the main Christmas meal although maybe not as many to provide a huge choice if you don't eat the traditional turkey. For meat eaters - there are choices for turkey, chicken, beef, ham & much more. And there are plenty of choices of desserts, nibbles, starters & everything else.
Each recipe is accompanied by its own picture which I always think is essential for any good cookbook & makes your mouth water before you've even started cooking!
If you're looking for a simple, cheap cookbook with quick, easy meals for Christmas then you reallly can't go wrong with this one. Recommended.
