Like in the other European countries, Portuguese people used to decorate their homes with a small Nativity crib. These cribs are not ordinary compared to the usual Nativity cribs. And these cribs have a holy family, the three wise men, farmers, and animals. Also shepherds, and other characters. If you want to have a bigger Nativity scene, you can check some shops that make big nativity scenes with over 100 characters that include windmills, waterfalls, and lights.

Like other European countries, families fill the table with various meals for Christmas Eve.  In Portugal, they call the Christmas meal “Consoada.” The main meal of Christmas is usually in the form of Turkey. But others prefer to cook dishes made of lamb, goat, and pork. On the other hand, each region has a preferred dessert for Christmas Eve. In Minho province, they used to have “Lampreia de ovos.” And carrot balls for the Alentejo province. Traditionally, people in Portugal prepare desserts that include “Rabanadas” (French toast), “Filhos” (sugared fried dough), and rice pudding. Aside from delicious food and dessert, they also prepare Christmas cake which is known as “Bolo Rei.”
