I’m So Hungover Cookbook: Restorative recipes to ease your pain

Here you’ll find 50 restorative recipes for loaded fries, bacon burgers, hydrating ramen, spicy tacos, mini pizzas and buffalo wings. Because, just like death and taxes, hangovers are simply one of life’s certainties. There exists infinite hangover ‘cures’, including raw egg, sports drinks and even rubbing lemon in your armpits. Some heretics even suggest avoiding alcohol altogether. But there is only one known relief from a chronic hangover: food.

This beautifully photographed cookbook showcases the very guiltiest of pleasures. A dank mac and cheese might not make your headache disappear (that’s why we have painkillers), but it will certainly aid a tender state of mind and empower you to face the outside world. But who even needs the outside world when you can just make your own bacon hash? Or jalapeno poppers? Or chorizo tacos?Or maybe you’re someone who prefers to keep it classy when hungover (as atonement for the prior night’s sin). In which case there’s hassle-free recipes for potato and rosemary pizza, fettuccini carbonara and pizza-stuffed roast potatoes (pure class). Then for the sweet-of-tooth: salted chocolate brownies and cream-cheese stuffed honey cookies.

The best thing about all recipes from The I’m-So-Hungover Cookbook is that, because they’re administered for medicinal purposes, the calories really don’t matter. Right?
