Food is a big thing at Christmas time and several people think that everything served must be dripping in Goose Fat to be festive – to which we say “Bah Humbug” – If Charles Dickens were alive today he would be sure to love some of the festive healthy treats our team come up with at this time of the year.
So on the run up to Christmas we will be sharing some of our special recipes from the Hard Target Cookbook.
The simple little recipe from the Hard Target Cookbook is a great way to use up any left over turkey. This little gem makes a tasty and healthy alternative for St. Stephen’s day.
