love a plateful if Bubble and Squeak!
Hub loves a traditional Christmas dinner with all the trimmings and cooks it for us. We had a local farmer's lemon and tarragon stuffed chicken with creamed carrots, red cabbage and sprouts and had the second round of it today. My favourite is the roasted apple with a dollop of cranberry sauce, which is refreshing and cuts through all the richness.
The rest of the chicken is going into a pie with mushrooms for New Year's day and likely into another Sunday dinner in January or February.
I am cooking a chunky veg soup with Christmas veg leftovers, some leek and a tin of beans for tomorrow. Any leftover soup is then going to be made into a comforting fricassé by using it as the stock for a roux to which I add a tin of mushrooms, lemon juice and more seasoning. It is a way of turning leftover chicken soup into something delicious for a Sunday meal that I grew up with - but it works equally well as a vegetarian meal with rice.
My grannies had to make the most of whatever they could get during WWII and the post-war years, and they can really teach us some lessons in making the most of all the good things. I don't like food waste. We get about 6-7 meals out of our Christmas dinner ingredients in all. We no longer eat a lot of meat but I prefer to go for good quality and welfare on those special occasions.
