Notes
Time plan tip: Prepare this recipe to the end of step 1 up to 1 day ahead. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. Continue to the end of step 4, 4 hours ahead. Fifteen minutes before serving, return the baking dish to the oven (with the Crispy Roast Potatoes) to reheat, then continue from step 5.
Oven space tip: Cook the carrots on the top shelf of the oven while the ham is cooking on the lower shelf. Reheat in oven while the turkey is resting.
