This is a delicious recipe and very quick and easy to make. I don't actually eat it on Christmas day (we're traditional turkey people)...but it always reminds me of Christmas time with it's red and green colors. For some reason - making this always cheers up my day! Hope it does the same for you. Enjoy!
