I just bought a 8.25 pound bonelss prime rib, that along with mashed potatoes. corn, green beans Etc, etc,
We stopped doing the meals years ago. Got tired of turkey, ham and fixins. We went to little ham sandwiches, spinach dip, wings, potato salad, cheeses and olives chips and dips, cheesecake etc. We graze all day and its not a lot of work.
I had a work friend who used to make these -- they are delicious. I looked through quite a few recipes for it, and this one seems the closest to hers, except she used Cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella, but do what you like. They won't last long, I guarantee it. Some commenters said use a bit more salt, some said use a little nutmeg too, some said grate the cheese yourself, don't used packaged. The poster used the Parmesan on top so it browns up like the picture. See comments at link below.

Traditional ham, southern peas, potato salad, rolls, and a homemade butter pecan cake is what I will be making for our Christmas meal. What other family members are planning to bring is unknown at this time. They all bring whatever they want to add to everything I make. We always have a feast with lots of leftovers.
Oh, MzKitty, they look great. Thanks for the recipe.
That sounds delicious! I have to work Christmas eve and day, so I'm not sure when we'll have our holiday meal. I usually do prime rib with potatoes, asparagus or green beans. If it is just DH and I, I'll probably make creme brulee in the instapot for dessert.
We had Beef Wellington for Thanksgiving, and I heard Salmon was the feature for Christmas! I love non-traditional meals, especially when I don't have to cook!
For starters, I like a cold shrimp platter and herring in wine sauce. Add some crackers and shots of Russian vodka from the freezer.
It all sounds good! I wonder if I could find any fresh tuna in Iowa in December. That's usually more available around Lent.
I doubt many groceries here in the hinterland pay to have fish air-freighted in to their doorstep.
my greek wife made this almost exactly the same but she used feta cheese very goodI had a work friend who used to make these -- they are delicious.
