Jamie says: “This simple-yet-punchy dressing transforms leftover veg into a seriously good, fresh-tasting salad. Use whatever crunchy veg you’ve got – raw cabbage, carrots, sprouts, or even cauliflower – they’ll all work in this super versatile recipe. Brilliant for cutting down on food waste, this salad is budget-friendly, too. Try it with rice noodles, leftover turkey, or stuff it into pittas.”

Jamie says: “This recipe uses up leftover turkey in a comforting yet low-prep pasta dish, all made in one pan and ready in 20 minutes! It's got lots of flex, too – try pigs in blankets, stuffing, ham or chestnuts instead of turkey. Whatever leftovers you’ve got will work with this moreish, herby sauce”.
Jamie says: “Ready in minutes, this crowd-pleasing dessert is a brilliant way to use up seasonal favourites and it's fun to make, too, so get the kids involved! Personalise it according to what needs using up – swap in Christmas cake or mince pies, experiment with different biscuits and, for a real treat, try ice cream or custard instead of yoghurt. It's ridiculously good”.
