I think cauliflower is one of those love it or hate it veg
Lamb or chicken/turkey and all the trimmings (gravy, stuffing, mint sauce (for the lamb), Yorkshire puddings, carrots, roast potatoes and maybe parsnips) 😃

I thought parsnips were only a Christmas dinner thing :tongue:
Turkey/chicken (I'll be honest, can't tell the difference)
Roast potatoes
Roast carrots
Cauliflower cheese
Peas and carrots
Haggis Stuffing
Yorkie puds

All drowning in gravy.
Chicken, Yorkshire pudding, mash, roast potatoes, peas, carrots, pigs in blankets and lots of gravy
Chicken or gammon, roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips, pigs in blankets, stuffing, gravy, Yorkshire puddings and Shloer to drink.

When I was younger my dad would call it "snow-covered broccoli" to try and get me to eat it. It didn't work and I still hate it.

Not in our family 😂
Hmm for me it’s got to be:

Roast Chicken
Roast Potatoes
Yorkshire Pudding
Roasted carrots
Roasted parsnips
Stuffing
And plenty of gravy :drool:

Plus pigs in blankets at Christmas of course!

Use haggis rather than oatmeal as a binding agent.

That's the strangest food I ve ever heard of, what's wrong with basic sage and onion :tongue:
Okay I'm going to describe it in detail:
1. The Turkey.
2. Turkey has to be given with loads of pigs in blankets. And don't even bother giving it to me if the bacon isn't crispy.
3. Roast Potatoes.
4. Yorkshire Pudding, with gravy :biggrin:
5. Stuffing. Loads of stuffing, again crispy.
6. Carrots and Peas
7. Cauliflower, with cheese.
8. Gravy on everything except the cauliflower.

If it's at a carvery, then I have gammon as well
