Boxing Day leftover pasties

I am no domestic goddess and earlier I tweeted my excitement at boxing day being all about the microwave. Then we found a leftovers pastie suggestion courtesy of able and cole organic delivery company.

We got the pastry recipe from Nigella then each of us made our own pastie out of the leftovers - nut roast, veggie sausages, chopped up roast veg and pots, gravy, peas, broccoli. Mr A snuck some meat in his. You can add cranberry sauce and stuffing too.

Anyway it was totally worth turning the oven on for half an hour for. The kids liked making them too. I am well and truly fit to burst now and might not move off the sofa for some time.

I love Boxing Day, no pressure, no expectation, a chance to actually watch some tv.
