How To Order A (Sort Of) Healthy Takeaway This Evening

Although convenient, and a blessing in a not-so-thinly veiled disguise when you're hungover, takeaways are often high in salt, saturated fat and calories (boo).

Obviously when you're feeling like shit, the last thing you want to worry about is whether the mountains of food you plan to consume are actually any good for you because of course, with most takeaways, they're absolutely not.

But, by a few simple changes to your meal you can still enjoy takeaways - honest. The below are various ways in which you can do this.

Pizza

Cheesy, delicious and normally the number one go to takeaway for people suffering the day after the night before, probably due to the fact that you don't even need cutlery to eat it. Here's how to make your pizza slightly better for you.

    Curry

    Jolly good for doubling down on the heavy food to soak up that last bit of hangover on a Sunday evening. Our favourite curry is apparently a chicken tikka masala. Although the amount of people that refuse to waver from kormas is amazing.

      Kebab

      The gourmet of choice for proud rider of the nightbus home after a heavy night of partying. Unless you're more into fried chicken or cheesy chips. Kebabs can actually be OK-ish for you though...

        Asian Food

        Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese... all excellent and delicious. And slightly cheaper than curries.
