The turkey is cold, you\u2019ve munched your way through a field\u2019s worth of potatoes and an enormous number of pigs-in-blankets. You\u2019ve also got lots of time for long rides on more-or-less empty roads, and a tonne of leftovers.<\/p>\n

So why waste time and energy food shopping? Turn your abandoned sprouts into something tasty instead.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve partnered with\u00a0Olive\u00a0Magazine<\/a>\u00a0(also published by Immediate Media) to bring you the very best recipes for cyclists. All the recipes are easy to follow and include everything from homemade nutrition products to tasty and hearty post-ride meals.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, after days and days of chutney, cheese and mincemeat, you just want a bright, spicy flavour to cut through it all.<\/p>\n

Stand aside turkey curry, here comes the bacon and Brussels sprout broth<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Yes, you heard correctly. Turn the inevitable pile of uneaten sprouts into something divine. You can whip it up in 30 minutes, and it\u2019s perfect for dishing out after a chilly winter ride.<\/p>\n

2. Parsnip and potato rosti<\/h2>\n

Lots of leftover spuds and parsnips? Try out this parsnip and potato rosti recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This variation on the traditional crispy rosti has a natural sweetness due to the parsnips and is pleasingly simple to make.<\/p>\n

3. Chicken and shredded sprouts pie with butter bean mash<\/h2>\n
\""If\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>
If you\u2019re looking for a comfort dish, look no further.<\/span><\/figcaption> Olive Magazine<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

This chicken and shredded sprouts pie with butter bean mash<\/a>\u00a0is hearty, satisfying and pleasingly creamy.<\/p>\n

It relies on lighter semi-skimmed milk and cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche, rather than more calorific cream and butter options. It\u2019s also a simple way to use up more of those sprouts.<\/p>\n

4. Asian hot and sour turkey soup<\/h2>\n
\""This\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

Got more leftover turkey than you know what to do with? Whip up this simple Asian hot and sour turkey soup<\/a> with spicy chilli and sour vinegar, and you\u2019ll get through it in no time.<\/p>\n

Rice noodles added to the clear soy-spiced soup base bring the carbohydrates, making this another excellent choice for refuelling.<\/p>\n

5. Shredded turkey quesadillas<\/h2>\n
\""Portable\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

Still not got through the turkey? Okay, how about these filling shredded turkey quesadillas<\/a>?<\/p>\n

You can put them together quickly, so they\u2019re ideal for anyone who needs something tasty but doesn\u2019t have much time.<\/p>\n

They work equally well for hungry kids and cyclists alike, though you might want to drop the chilli content for the little ones.<\/p>\n

6. Spiced shepherd\u2019s pie with parsnip mash<\/h2>\n
\""A\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>
A low-fat version of the ever-popular shepherd\u2019s pie.<\/span><\/figcaption> Olive Magazine<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

Few things are as comforting as a rich, meaty shepherd\u2019s pie. This spiced shepherd\u2019s pie with parsnip mash<\/a> adds chilli, cinnamon and cumin to the mix. It will also help you get through those leftover parsnips.<\/p>\n

You can make it a little lighter by substituting cream and butter for skimmed milk and cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche.<\/p>\n

7. Turkey chilli bean stew<\/h2>\n
\""A\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>

If you\u2019ve got a lot of leftovers and a lot of mouths to feed, then this one-pot turkey chilli bean stew<\/a> will save time, money, energy and effort.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s plenty of protein from the turkey, beans and pulses, while the chipotle paste and smoked paprika make this warming, rich and tasty.<\/p>\n

Serve by the steaming bowlful with a sprinkling of coriander and a hunk of fresh bread.<\/p>\n

8. Brussels bubble and squeak with poached egg<\/h2>\n
\""We\"<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><\/div>
We love this brunch-ready way of using up leftover sprouts.<\/span><\/figcaption> Olive Magazine<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n

This Brussels bubble and squeak with poached egg<\/a> recipe manages to be comforting, economical, protein-rich and tasty all in one go. And it\u2019s yet another tasty way to get rid of your leftover sprouts!<\/p>\n

Mixed with potato, they can be transformed into a delicious bubble and squeak, which tastes downright delicious with a poached egg on top.<\/p>\n
