"I hate Christmas pub so this year I'm making a trifle. I can't wait my parents are coming up Christmas Day...I'm so looking forward to it  "
Trifle is yucky. I just want the fruit, jelly and cream. |

"I'm not keen on Xmas pud. Can raspberry pavlova be used as an alternative? I have a great recipe for that.
Give us your Pavlova the."
Take some meringue nests. Fill them with cream and carefully place raspberry's on top. It's dead easy. You should try it. |

"Yeah mine is
Get a Xmas pudding
Throw it in the bin
Eat choc fudge cake instead
 "
Cut out the first two stages. To be honest I go and get one from Fortnum and Mason as a gift for my brother in law and we're the only ones that eat it. He doesn't like brandy butter or cream though so I have get some of that just for me and he has custard (which is yucky). |

"
Guava jelly for me.
Now, what do you know of Guava Jelly? I can't say we ever had it after Christmas dinner but it was a staple in our home growing up.
"
Only that it was a song title of Johnny Nash's.
Wouldn't know what a guava was if it hit me in the face, though i suspect i'd know about it. |

"Thought you were talking about the Johnny Nash tune
That's what popped into my head when I saw the thread title"
I hadn't even thought about Johnny Cash - my head was in "stir up ye Christmas puddings" which our vicar would quote every Stir Up Sunday. |

There are many different types of guava but I prefer the ones that are white inside, the pink ones are too flowery tasting for me. The best is an under-ripe one and eat it like an apple.

Or make it with someone who might struggle with the stirring but has an old family recipe.

Love Christmas pudding and bought mine from Tesco already....another year I'll make my own but this was such a bargain I was going to eat it a few weeks ago when I bought it.
Have since decided to save for Christmas when I'll be able to tinker with my diet without guilt  |

"I can't stand Christmas desserts, so tend to go for a nice chocolate yule log to keep it in the Christmas spirit "
I should make one this year. We usually have too much so I haven't made one for a few years. I might do it with the kids when we go away after Christmas. |
