Firstly, a disclaimer: I am no Gordon Ramsay. But as is often the case, now that I have my own family, I am learning on the job - especially when it comes to cooking. When my order promptly arrived the next day, I frantically began googling ‘how to cook a turkey’. I was pleased to see that the Tesco turkey had a helpful cooking time and suggestions on how to cook it.
This meal was a cost-effective Christmas dinner. It had all the bells and whistles - without the huge price tag. I loved that the vegetables were pre-cut because it made cooking easier. I was delighted that the roast potatoes were lovely and crisp on the outside but gorgeously fluffy on the inside. The turkey looked and smelled amazing.
The best bit about it? All the produce comes frozen, which means very little goes to waste. It's a winner, especially when we're trying to be frugal.The Tesco bundle is a fantastic option for any family trying to budget this Christmas. The total cost was £24.05, which I thought was an absolute bargain.
We had a lot of vegetables left over that can be used for future dinners. The meal itself was delicious. The vegetables tasted fresh and were still full of flavour. Other than cooking the turkey, this meal required minimal effort. So, you can spend more time with your family on the special day.Now you know how to spend under £25 on a Christmas dinner for five, it's time to decorate your table.
