Here is one recipe that was provided:

• Epic Christmas toastie: This is a delicious way to use up your turkey, stuffing, potatoes, parsnips and pigs in blankets. You will also need some bread, mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, brie, spicy pickled beetroot and coleslaw. The steps are:

  1. Start by making the bubble and squeak. Put the roast potatoes, sprouts, parsnips, carrots and pigs in blankets in a bowl with some pickle and lots of seasoning. Mash with a potato masher until it starts to combine and the mixture holds together when squeezed. Form into two patties and fry them in some oil until golden and crisp on both sides.

  2. Spread mayonnaise on the outside of four slices of bread and cranberry sauce on the inside. Divide the turkey and stuffing between two of the slices and top with the bubble and squeak patties, brie, beetroot and coleslaw. Cover with the remaining bread slices and press down lightly.

  3. Fry the sandwiches in a clean pan, weighing them down with another pan, for 2-3 minutes on each side or until really golden and crisp. Cut in half and serve.
