FEELING a little bit the worse for wear today?
If you are one of the many people waking up with a hangover on the first day of 2024, whip up a low- ingredient smoothie to ease the pain.
7
After the excess of New Year’s Eve, it’s time to swap the bender for a blender . . .
BERRY BLISS: Kick that hangover to the kerb with a sensational berry mix.
Grab a cup of frozen mixed berries, £2.99 for 1kg, half a banana, approximately 16p each, and half a cup of plain yoghurt, 90p for 500g, all from Tesco.
Blend with half a cup of water — and good to go.

Pro tip: Make a double batch and put the rest in the fridge so you can start the day with a berry smoothie tomorrow.
LEAN ’N’ GREEN: Throw a handful of frozen spinach, £1.50 for 900g, a handful of frozen mango, £2.45 for 500g, and half a pineapple, £1 each, all Asda, in a blender with water.
Pro Tip: If you have a tin of pine- apple in fruit juice at home already, you can use that instead to bring the cost down.
ON THE GO: Soothe your stomach with a breakfast health drink using a banana, approx.
16p, quarter of a cup of oats, £1.15 for 1kg, a handful of mixed nuts, £1.69 for 200g, and half a cup of milk, £1.10 for 2.2 litres, all Lidl.
Blend together until smooth.
Pro Tip: Raid your spice rack and sprinkle in some cinnamon for added flavour and anti-inflammatory properties.
PEACH PERFECTION: Unearth that tin of peaches hiding in the back of the cupboard.
As long as it is in fruit juice, blend it with half a cup of yoghurt, 79p for 200g at Morrisons, for a quick, fruity fix.
Pro Tip: If you have leftover festive clementines, add in for extra fibre and vitamin C.
PLAN AHEAD: Do not toss out any aging fruit and veg this month.
Slice them up and stash in tubs or bags for freezing.
You will always have smoothie ingredients on hand.
