Christmas Day. Kitchen chaos, festive family gatherings and a great big Turkey! All year we wait for this day and once the table has been set, within minutes we fill our bellies to our hearts content. Best meal ever right? We think not… what’s better than a Christmas dinner you say? Left over Christmas dinner of course! We look forward to Boxing Day – not just for the sales but all the different food combinations we can create with our left over Turkey. Here are some of our favourites:

TURKEY, MOZZARELLA & KALE PESTO PANINI
