Tips for the perfect turkey dinner
- Turkey is a Free Food (just as long as you remember to take the skin off after cooking), so you can enjoy as much as you like.
- Roasting your potatoes and veggies in low-calorie cooking spray is a great way to transform a traditional Christmas dinner into something slimming-friendly and just as tasty! You can put all your veggies into one tray (with a sprinkling of rosemary and garlic for an extra boost of flavour), saving you washing-up and some much-needed oven space.
- Top it all off with our deliciously rich roasted onion gravy. Like our handy oven-ready roasties, you can pick up this gravy readymade from the Slimming World Food Range at Iceland.
Dessert
Christmas past: Christmas pudding with brandy butter
Christmas present: Chocolate yule log
When it comes to Christmas dinner dessert, nothing short of a showstopper will do! This chocolatey treat will round off the festivities nicely.
