Now when it comes to festivities, what are we eating is something many miss out on and do not care about the calories. I say that you let it go sometimes but do not go overboard and enjoy the lovely food that is sacred to different festivals. This time we are talking about Christmas which is celebrated by Christians and even some non-Christians with full zest as it is all about getting together and having a blast. To make it all momentous, one of the things you could do would be cooking yourself at least something sweet with all your heart. So here is a recipe by Chef which is traditionally served during Christmas Christmas dinner in Ireland, the UK, and in other countries. It has apparently been brought by Irish and British immigrants.
