How M&S Christmas Food to Order works and what we think you should order for 2024

Is it really Christmas if you don't tuck into a turkey crown? This succulent option has been made with a chestnut, bacon and thyme stuffing, and it's wrapped in an oak-smoked Applewood bacon. It's also gluten-free and can serve up to fourteen people (depending on which size you order).

Whether you plate this up as an alternative to turkey or during your famous Boxing Day banquet, this decadent Collection Scottish Leaping Salmon en Croute will go down a treat with your guests. Encased in a buttery pastry in the shape of a fish, topped with a luxuriously creamy leek and smoked haddock sauce.

An essential on any meat-eaters plate, these twelve pigs in blankets wrapped in streaky bacon and six pork, cranberry and rosemary stuffing parcels are a must-have this Christmas. With plenty to go around, you shouldn't have to fight over the last one!

Are you catering for vegans? Made from pea protein, this plant-based No Turkey Joint is packed full of flavour thanks to the apple, caramelised onion and chestnut stuffing inside and the vegan garlic and sage melt on top for an added golden glaze. Plus, it serves 2-3 people.

Swap out the traditional trimmings this year and opt for a vegan alternative. This selection box features triple-cooked roast potatoes, red cabbage, cauliflower and leek bake and a garnish selection featuring vegan sausages and stuffing balls.

Showcase this pheasant, partridge and pigeon combination on your dinner table this Christmas. Topped with streaky bacon, it also has a traditional pork, sage and onion stuffing centre. Any leftovers would make a wonderful sandwich or Boxing Day feast.

Instead of a traditional starter, serve up this luxury shellfish platter. It features Honduran king prawns, British-dressed crab and crab claws, shell-on Madagascan black tiger prawns, and shell-on and peeled Vietnamese black tiger prawns. Plus Marie Rose sauce and garlic aioli. The best thing about it? No preparation is required as it's ready to eat.

Continue the celebrations into Boxing Day with this British Wiltshire cured ham. It is exceptional for a buffet as it's ready to eat, and you'll get approximately 40 slices from it. You'll be pleased to know that it's soaked in brine, making it juicy and succulent.

Christmas and cheese go hand in hand, so if you're hosting a party, why not share the M&S Baked Brie en Croute with your guests? Cut up some vegetables, bread or meat so that everyone can take turns and dunk away in this melty brie.
