Budget Christmas recipes

Going all out for Christmas doesn’t require you to overspend – discover our budget Christmas recipes that still deliver on festive decadence without breaking the bank. These recipes can keep costs per head down or go far in terms of portion servings.

You can kick things off with a fiery baked camembert with harissa honey, turkey and cranberry sausage rolls are a moreish snack that’ll go down a treat.

As for the main event, try our air-fryer roast chicken, fondant sprouts with bacon, or our root veg in blankets. Or, take the trouble out of a roast and give our air fryer festive traybake a go.

Other thrifty ways to make the most of your Christmas budget are to make homemade food gifts, serve wallet-friendly party food, and familiarise yourself with our Christmas leftover recipes.

Try our speedy Glow-Up hacks, from a fruity glaze to brush onto pigs in blankets to a savoury granola to scatter over bread sauce…
