Bubble and squeak isn't the only leftover to be excited about. This Boxing Day brunch board makes the most of any leftover meat, turning it into a morning (or afternoon, depending on how full you are from the day before) festive feast.

Alongside your turkey, all the best bits of your usual brunch are there: sausage and bacon, separately and wrapped together à la pigs and blankets, roasted veg, scrambled eggs and buttery toast (and crumpets). Dig in family style.
