    An Easy Christmas Dinner

    Who loves slaving away all day in the kitchen once the presents are opened? And then to watch all your hard work get devoured in ten minutes? It's not worth it! Enjoy spending time on other things this holiday! (Like assembling all those Christmas toys! ) This is an easy Christmas dinner that takes little to no time and can be done and on the table in one hour! 

    For this dinner let’s grab:

    • Prime rib or ribeye roast
    • Baby potatoes
    • Vegetables–your choice of carrots, asparagus, green beans, broccoli, brussel sprouts

    Size Matters

    When making a dinner in under an hour, the size of the meat does matter. It’s going to be very difficult to get a large roast to cook in under an hour in the oven. And baby potatoes will take less time to cook than large potatoes. 

    Roast

    A two pound roast will typically cook in an hour. If you use prime rib steaks those will also typically cook in an hour or under. You'll want to use prime rib or ribeye if you can't readily grab prime rib.

    Baby Potatoes

    Using baby potatoes versus large potatoes will work better. In a pinch, you can cut up russet potatoes into pieces.

    Vegetables

    There are a variety of vegetables you can use for this recipe that will cook quickly. Asparagus, green beans, carrots, broccoli, and brussell sprouts are all great choices!

      This is ideal, not only for Christmas but for many special occasions. I scaled down the recipe to two servings and it was perfect for a date-night dinner at home. Thank you for sharing this recipe
