Bearing in mind that Christmas is just a week away, we have gathered a few recipes to try out instead of the everyday rice and swallow meals that we have become so accustomed to. There are no rules saying that it is a must to put them on the table so why not go for something a little different this year? Turkey is pretty much a staple all over the world for Christmas feast so it is only right to give this Italian dish a small twist too.
