Cold plate

A cold plate is a popular dish with origins in rural Newfoundland, Canada.[1][2]
It is generally served as a mid-day or evening meal. In Newfoundland, cold plates are typically served at weddings and large gatherings. The ability to prepare this dish almost entirely in advance makes it amenable to such purposes.

Cold plates are also commonly prepared and sold at community fundraisers in rural Newfoundland.
Components of a cold plate include:
- A serving each of turkey breast, ham, and roast beef.
- Pasta salad
- Various mashed potato based salads:
- Lettuce
- Tomato
- Dressing (traditional Newfoundland turkey stuffing prepared with Newfoundland Savory)
- Cranberry (optional)
- Fresh baked dinner roll (usually white bread)
- A serving of jelly salad (also referred to as a Jello salad)
- Coleslaw

A Newfoundland cold plate is something everyone in the province will know. In such, every family will have their own variations of essential additions to their particular version.
Growing up in the 60's & 70's in Newfoundland, a cold plate was actually a weekly occurrence. After the Sunday roast of beef, ham, chicken or turkey the leftover cold meats would be served up for supper with a variety of deli-type potato salads, pasta salad and coleslaw. - ^ "Traditional Newfoundland Cold Plates".

Traditional Newfoundland Cold plates consist of three types of potato salads – there's the Vegetable Potato Salad, (sometimes called White Salad) Pickled Beet Potato Salad, and the Mustard Potato Salad. There's also a macaroni or pasta salad, and always a coleslaw too. Depending on who's preparing the plate, there may or may not be a jello salad – I left that out, because it wasn't common for us and I actually do not like it!
