Christmas is always the busiest time in a year. So much work to be done and many things to be prepared for these special days, so you can have a little time to get some ideas for Christmas meals, especially for lunch time.

The first thing is that lunch menu may not be focused on Christmas while dinner menu is always focused and is a common concern on these days. So an easy and economical lunch menu with budget-friendly consideration for a Christmas lunch following can help you not only save your time but also save your pennies.

Christmas Lunch Menu Ideas

The dishes on the menu are often easy to make and take a little time to cook. Just mix some vegetables and fruit combining some soft drink or wine, you will have a good lunch.

A festive red salad is recommended as a main dish for this kind of menu. With a few simple ingredients including of red cabbages, red onions, apples, and beetroots, you can make a nutrition winter salad within 15 minutes. This dish can be also kept in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.

They can fill their stomach by sipping their hot coffee, chocolate or tea, enjoying the taste of cookies while still working at their offices.
