Scroll down to check out the Deal of the Day SUN SAVERS Five tips to give leftover vegetables a second chance with a 'wow' factor Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HAVING family over soon but stuck for ideas as well as cash? You could jazz up dishes, for added wow factor, just by using leftover uncooked veg to knock up some pickle or relish. Here's some ideas . . . Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up RECYCLE OLD JARS: You will need jars to put your pickle or relish in, and could get a 12-pack of 300ml ones at Hobbycraft for £9, but the cheapest way to get started is to reuse empty jam or sauce jars. Give them a good wash, or pop in the dishwasher then use boiling water to rinse. TANGY TREAT: Pickled red onions are easy. Finely slice the onion, pop in a jar, cover with white wine vinegar, £2 at Sainsbury's, and add a pinch of salt and of sugar. Put the lid on and shake, leave for 20 minutes before trying — adding more vinegar, salt or sugar as you think best. Pop in the fridge and use on everything from tacos to sarnies. SPICE OF LIFE: Slice up any spare chilli peppers and pop in a jar. Then put 100ml of water in a pan and heat on the stove with a few teaspoons of sugar and one of salt, plus you could add mustard seeds or bay leaves from your spice rack. Bring to the boil then pour the liquid into the jar. Carefully put the lid on the jar and leave to cool. Once at room temperature, store in the fridge and the chillis should keep for a few months. CRUNCHY RELISH: Use up any mini- cucumbers or radishes to make a tasty relish. Slice your veg and keep it crunchy by adding to a sieve with ice cubes for ten to 20 minutes before pickling. I've figured out how to make the perfect fried eggs - it's so simple, works every time and you don't even need any oil Make a brine following the same instructions as before, leave to cool and add to the jar with your veg. You can also add onion, and herbs such as dill, for extra flavour. PASS THE CARROTS: The key for great pickled carrots is to cut them up into very fine matchsticks or use a peeler to create shavings. Follow the same brine instructions as above, but add some rice wine vinegar if you have it, as well as a dash of fish sauce. Once cooled and refrigerated, you can use these on Asian dishes such as dumplings or stir fries. All prices on page correct at time of going to press.

Deal of the Day: Sonos' popular portable speaker is more than $100 off right now
Memorial Day weekend, also known as the unofficial start of barbecue and beach trip season, is almost here, along with lots of sales to celebrate. Few things come more in handy during a summer get-together than a portable speaker, and you can now get the popular Sonos Move 2 for more than $100 off on Amazon. The second iteration of the Sonos Move, this model has improved sound quality, voice controls, up to a full day of playtime and much more. Below, I highlight its standout features and why we made it our Deal of the Day. 4.3-star average rating from 587 reviews on Amazon The Sonos Move 2 is the ultimate accessory for audiophiles. This speaker has a double tweeter (the mechanism that helps produce clear sound), meaning it sounds even better than the first Sonos Move (which only has one), according to the brand. It also automatically adjusts the sound based on the acoustics of the room or environment you're in, according to Sonos. Plus, it has a carrying handle, touch controls on the top, voice-enabled functioning and comes with a wireless charging base. You can also connect it to a turntable or computer by using a Sonos Line-In Adapter. Why trust NBC Select? I'm a commerce editor at NBC Select, where I regularly write about deals and sale events.

Deal of the Day: KitchenAid's buy-for-life stand mixer is $100 off right now
As someone with a decade of experience covering food and cooking, there aren't many kitchen appliances I'd describe as being of 'buy for life' caliber. When it comes to KitchenAid's fan-favorite stand mixer, though, the title is very much just. Right now, the brand's glossy 3.5-quart stand mixer is 25% off, putting it at its lowest price in more than three months. The stand mixer is currently our Deal of the Day not just because of the drop in price (which is the same you'd find on Black Friday), but because it's a major workhorse in the kitchen. And contrary to popular belief, is great at more than just making frosting or cookie dough. Deal of the Day: KitchenAid 3.5-Quart Stand Mixer 4.7-star average rating from 4,545 reviews on Amazon Available in a range of sizes and colors (most recently the shade Butter), the KitchenAid stand mixer has an instantly recognizable silhouette: The removable bowl is made of durable stainless steel and has a long handle on the side to make maneuvering and washing it easy. The top of the mixer tilts back so that you can lift the mixer attachment (whether it's the included paddle, whisk or dough hook) to remove excess dough from it, use a rubber spatula to mix the sides of the bowl by hand and, of course, remove the bowl to clean it. The mixer has 10 speeds, which you can adjust while the mixer is on. Plus, aside from your typical baking needs, you can use a KitchenAid stand mixer to make homemade pizza or focaccia dough, meringue and shredded chicken. In my experience, the mixer also makes tasks much faster and less tiring compared to doing them by hand, like kneading dough or whipping cream. Why trust NBC Select?
