Start as you mean to go on

The main event
The star of the show at most Christmas dinner tables, is of course the golden brown, roasted turkey – a smell that fills the air in our homes and brings with it nostalgic festive memories.
This year, feed the family for less with Lidl’s Northern Ireland 3kg Fresh Whole Turkey (£14.99), arriving in stores from 18th December. For those looking to take the hassle out of prepping the bird, spending less time in the kitchen and more time with your loved ones, try the retailer’s Boned and Rolled Turkey Joint (£15.99).

When it comes to Christmas dinner you cannot have enough side dishes, as all the trimmings are essential – and some would argue that is the best part! From as little as £1.80, you can pick up a bag of Rooster Potatoes to roast, boil or mash as you please, or treat your guests to a taste of luxury with Lidl’s pre-prepared Deluxe Buttery Roast Potatoes (£3.99).
