Throw a Little Winter Dinner Party for Your Family

By

Sometimes in the hustle and bustle of life, we forget to slow down and appreciate the people we live with. Do you need a great way to reconnect with your own family this winter? Think about hosting a cozy dinner party—just for the people in your house. You could even get in your pajamas because you aren’t going anywhere! Take the chill off these cold days with the following ideas as you plan your dinner party. With the right kitchen tools, your post-holiday dinner will go off without a hitch.


What’s on the Menu?

So, what’s for dinner? Make it easy on yourself with a casual spread. The best dinner parties are low-key without a lot of stress. Simple comfort food is always the way to your family’s heart. For example, you could whip up a pot of homemade mac and cheese on the stovetop. Cheddar gooeyness is bound to hit the spot no matter how picky some of your younger dinner guests might be.

Sliders are another party favorite, and there are so many ways to make them. To make it healthier, you could do sliders in butter lettuce leaves instead of a bun. You know your family best, so go for a recipe you know they’ll love! Prep your sliders in advance and store them in a family-sized, large container, and simply pull them out of the fridge when you’re ready to warm them up.

 Why Not Make It a Game Night?

Food, laughter, conversation, and games bring the family closer. Classic board games are a family tradition for many, and if it’s been a while since you’ve dusted off the games in the closet, why not make tonight the night? There are tons of different games that can keep everyone entertained and happy. You could play games either before or after dinner depending on how everyone’s feeling. If you’re looking for a way to spice up your at-home dinner party, look no further than your board game closet.

 Raise a Toast

During dinner, don’t forget to raise your glasses to each other. Go around the table and ask everyone what they are looking forward to this year, or name one thing you are grateful for today. Don’t forget to bring out the nice glassware for an extra festive feeling. Even if it’s water you’re toasting with, you can make it special. Before the party, fill an ice tray with water and fresh fruit like lemons or cherries. You’ll have festive cubes to pop into water glasses just in time for your dinner toast.

Finish Off Dinner with a Hot Cocoa Bar

If you aren’t doing a baked dessert, you could set up a DIY hot chocolate bar for after dinner. Make a simple hot chocolate recipe from scratch with unsweetened cocoa powder, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Hot chocolate is a simple yet satisfying drink, and the possibilities for toppings are endless too. Garnish with marshmallows or whipped cream. Or, get creative with crushed peppermint sticks, toffee bits, sprinkles, or whatever strikes your fancy.

Make this the year you truly remember what is most important in your life. You don’t need a special occasion to celebrate your family—it can be a year-round endeavor.

When you cook meals at home, there’s a good chance you’re going to end up with leftovers. Leftovers are very convenient, but sometimes they lose some of their charm overnight in the fridge.

Some foods, including certain kinds of pasta and stew, can taste better as leftovers, but many others end up lacking if they’re not well stored or properly reheated.
