Christmas dinner was a while ago - but many people might still be opening the fridge to find platefuls of leftover turkey and spare vegetables needing to be used up as soon as possible. And it's an experience borne out by research.
Last year a study by Which? found that shoppers are much more likely to buy more than they actually need over the festive season. The consumer guide surveyed more than 1,300 individuals about their Christmas food purchasing habits, with 45% saying they overbought and had leftovers, while only 14% said they ran out of food or drink.
But luckily there are plenty of ways to repurpose anything that wasn't eaten on the big day or stuffed into a Boxing Day sandwich. From classics like bubble and squeak to a less traditional curry to spice things up, Aldi has shared some ideas to make this year’s leftovers a little more exciting.
