Make Christmas memories around the dinner table this year

Christmas 2024 is right around the corner! Shop at Safeway for Christmas dinner sides, appetizers, party foods, whole ham and plenty of Christmas dinner ideas! The first rule of Christmas is that you make the rules. Looking forward to hosting the whole family? You can do it! Thinking about a small Christmas lunch followed by a quiet night at home opening gifts? You can absolutely do that too!

For most of us, planning the big Christmas dinner can be challenging. Get started by thinking about the appetizers and party foods you want to serve. Stop by our deli for sandwich trays, wrap platters, seafood platters and classic meat and cheese trays. Picking up catering trays helps you save plenty of time in the kitchen. The finger foods keep your guests happy while everyone waits for the main dish.

For some, that will be roast ham, glazed with honey and baked until tender. For others, it will be prime rib. Whether you call it prime rib or standing rib roast, you know it when you see it: warm, usually served medium rare and very flavorful.

Save room in your plans and on the Christmas dinner table for dessert. Apple pie, cherry pie, sweet potato pie and blueberry cobbler are all fantastic options, but don’t forget red velvet cake or French silk pie. Paired with ice cream, it’s definitely a true crowd pleaser. Buy Christmas dinner foods early from your neighborhood Safeway and build a meal to remember. We wish you and your loved ones a merry Christmas full of good food and even better memories.
