A money-saving Scots mum has revealed how she’s dishing up Christmas dinner for just £5.71 per portion despite rising food costs.
Savvy home cook Lorna Cooper dished up the festive meal with all the trimmings for eight people, with enough leftovers to last for days.
To cook up her meats and veggies, Lorna used a turkey hamper from online healthy food retailer MuscleFood to cut the costs of her family’s Christmas dinner.
She had plenty of leftovers from the hamper which she froze and made into turkey and leek pie, as well as family-sized pigs in blankets to use in a Boxing Day brunch.
Lorna, from Paisley, says Christmas is her favourite time of the year and with prices of everyday foods soaring, wanted to show how to keep costs low and still enjoy the seasonal festivities with the family.
And after the last two years of disrupted Christmases, she wanted to share her tips to help other families who are looking forward to finally celebrating together.
Lorna, who runs the site ‘Feed Your Family’, said: “After the last couple of years, it’s more important who’s around the table than what’s on it.
“Christmas is a big tradition in our home. On Christmas Eve we all help out to prepare the food for the next day and then in the evening we sit by the fire with a cup of hot chocolate.
“My kids get involved in peeling the veggies and wrapping bacon around the sausages which we use from the MuscleFood hamper.”
However, with the cost-of-living crisis deepening this winter, the rising food prices have left some families worried about how they can afford to make enough food for everyone at the table.
This is why Lorna wanted to share her tips to help people enjoy a delicious Christmas meal without having to splash a fortune on meats and
