Boxing Day remix: What do you do with your leftovers?

David Parker December 19, 2014

Boxing Day is often something of a rolling celebration – a chance to keep the festive momentum going, only with new guests, new food and, at some point, a cobweb- clearing walk. Unlike Christmas Day itself, the 26th has fewer set-in-stone traditions, presenting an opportunity to make the day your own.

Turn to page 39 of December’s The Simple Things for our flavour-packed menu (with two puds, because it is Christmas). Dishes are designed with your larder of leftovers in mind – a laid-back spread guests can help themselves to, and which, above all, calls for less effort than yesterday’s romp of a roast. Light some candles, mix up a cocktail or two, and settle in for another day of feasting and fun.

Take our survey and let us know what you do with your leftovers.

There are tons of Wufoo features to help make your forms awesome.

Plus, plenty more festive ideas for gifts, food and fun in December's issue of The Simple Things - buy, download or subscribe now.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
