Christmas Leftovers | Recipes & Ideas By Jamie Oliver

pastry dough

🥗Healthier: whole wheat pastry

💰Cheaper: store-bought pastry

Whole wheat pastry adds fiber while store-bought saves time.

mixed vegetables

🥗Healthier: fresh seasonal vegetables

💰Cheaper: frozen vegetables

Fresh vegetables enhance flavor, while frozen are budget-friendly.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast is lower in calories and adds a cheesy flavor.

Chop leftover turkey, stuffing, ham, Brussels sprouts, and carrots.

Add chopped pickles and silver skinned onions to the mixture.

Mix in about 60 g of cheddar cheese for binding.

Spread cranberry sauce on one side of the bread.

Place the meat and vegetable mixture on top of the cranberry sauce-covered bread.

Butter the outside of the brown bread.

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and place the sandwich in it.

Cook for about 3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.

Press down with a spatula to help melt the cheese and create a crispy crust.

Serve with gravy for dipping and a side salad of apple or pear with a dressing of vinegar, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
