The blessed month of Ramadan is right around the corner! It is a time of deep joy, reflection and the time when Muslims all over the world fast from sunrise to sundown for an entire month
If you celebrate Ramadan you know how it can be hard to make healthy meals for suhoor, and why suhoor is so important. Here are 27 nutritious Suhoor Food recipes that are nutritious, delicious, high in protein and will keep you full and energized throughout the fast.
Here are some important tips for a Ramadan filled with nutritious meals and happy stomachs. Make sure to include the following in your suhoor:
- Protein and some healthy fats to help keep you full and energized until iftar
- Fiber to help regulate your blood sugar levels and keep your bathroom habits consistent.
- Fruits and vegetables help keep you hydrated like watermelon, cucumber, tomato, baby carrot and deliver your daily micronutrients.
- Complex carbs because complex carbs digest slower, keep you fuller longer, and help regulate your blood sugar levels, which prevents crashing. Complex carbs include sweet potatoes, brown rice, quinoa, oatmeal etc.
