Not all Protestants have ignored the close association of Mary, Jesus, and the Eucharist.
A United Methodist (!) eucharistic canon for Christmas expresses the eastern thought magnificently:
"As your Word became flesh,
born of a woman,
on that night long ago,
so in the night
in which he was betrayed
our Lord Jesus took bread,
and gave thanks,
broke it,
and gave it to his disciples
saying....."
In the Maronite Catholic Church, as the offerings are carried up, we chant:
Halleluia
I Myself am Bread of Life, the Lord declared
From on high, I came to earth to bring the world,
Life from the Father
Pure word without flesh and like a grain of the finest wheat.
Mary's womb became for me a fertile garden,
Now priests carry me aloft, up to the altars.
Hallelulia. Accept our off'rings.
