Christmas dinner in a tin!

This is attempt one, at a christmas dinner loaf. I'm trying to assemble all the flavours and ingredients of a christmas dinner, but that can be served sliced. In this one I covered the base of a big loaf tin with sliced parboiled parsnips and topped this with a stuffing made out of breadcrumbs, onion, chestnuts, dried cranberries and finely chopped parsnips. The next layer is thinly sliced chicken breast followed by stir fried shredded brussels sprouts, more chicken, more stuffing and another layer of parsnips. The whole creation was baked for 50 minutes and then served in slices with gravy.

The next version is going to include sausage meat and bacon and possibly bread sauce. I guess I've got about a month to get it perfect!
