7 ways to transform your Christmas leftovers!

It’s the day after Christmas and your kitchen is still full of food. If, like us, you can't bare looking at that turkey for one more second, stop and consider the art of transformation. We're talking panettone semifreddo, candy cane marshmallows and turkey nachos.
