Revealed! The most popular foods consumed on Christmas Day

As the holiday season rolls around, we say hello to seasonal lattes, cozy clothes, and of course, all the delicious foods that are cooked on Christmas Day. From side dishes to show-stealing mains, here are the most popular food consumed on Christmas Day.

1. Turkey

If you’re not a vegetarian, there’s a good chance that you’re eating Turkey on Christmas day. Whole roasted or prepared some other way, this is one of the most popular dishes on Christmas, especially because it goes with so many different sides.

2. Roasted potatoes

Is there any holiday side more classic than roasted potatoes? The vegetarian potatoes are creamy on the inside, and crispy on the outside. Or, however you like to prepare them to your preference. That’s the beauty of this versatile starch-based ingredient.

3. Gravy

Yes, gravy is so popular that it warrants its own write-up. Your food would be plain and dry without it, and it adds a decadent drizzle (or heavy pour) of delicious creaminess to any dish. Consider a mushroom based gravy as well if vegetarians are present.

4. Stuffing

Whether you make this holiday tradition with veggie broth or turkey stock, the flavors of onions and sage are just so cozy and winter-appropriate. Leftover stuffing with eggs, meat, and pretty much anything else is our favorite thing in the world. Why is it that stuffing only seems to get better the longer it sits in the fridge?

5. Pigs in blankets

Although they’re more of an appetizer, these tiny meat and puff pastry bites are always a massive hit at holiday parties and family dinners alike. Best of all? There are several tasty frozen options that taste absolutely divine and require zero prep.
