Suhoor is the Arabic term referring to the pre-dawn meal consumed by Muslims before fasting, usually during the month of Ramadan.
With Ramadan at our doorstep, we should be planning a healthy and nutritious meal plan for our families. By planning and preparing from beforehand, this will allow you more time for prayer. These are some ideas for Suhoor, which are quick and easy to make, and can be prepped from the night before.
I have prepared most of my Iftar meals as well, to allow for a peaceful and stress-free Ramadan. My family prefers to eat quite healthy during Ramadan, which means fewer carbs and less fried and greasy foods. Follow my feed on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter for delicious and clever ideas this Ramadan.
I prefer to have a smoothie at suhoor as it consists of all the nutrition that I need to stay full for the day ahead. Check out My Top 10 Smoothies for some healthy inspiration.
If your family prefers eggs at Suhoor, omelettes and fritattas are great options. You could chop up your ingredients the day before, whisk your eggs the night before, and put it together in the morning. Check out the recipes for Salami and Cream Cheese Fritatta and Indian Style One Pan Eggs
If you prefer a lighter Suhoor, these Gluten Free Rusks are delicious with a mug of your favourite tea or coffee.
Something for the kids, these Churro French Toasts, Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes and French Toast Cigars are divine and so simple to make, if you prefer something sweeter at Suhoor.
Muffins are also great at Suhoor, you can add chia seeds, fruits and bran to make it nutritious and filling. Check out the recipes for my Bran Flakes Mufffins and Avocado Muffins.
For something a little more filling, the Avocado Smoothie Bowl is the way to go. Packed full of superfoods, this is sure to keep you feeling energetic all day.
For an all in one meal, this Breakfast Strata is your answer. Prepared the night before, all you need to do at Suhoor is bake it in the oven and serve.
Strata, breakfast casserole, savoury french toast bake or bread pudding. It doesn’t matter what you call this, it’s totally delish, it’s something a little different and requires just a few ingredients. It tastes like a cross between a quiche, french toast and an omelette! Full recipe below….Enjoy !
Hope these meal ideas are useful in your preparations going forward, and please email me if you require clarity on any recipes
Ramadan Mubaruk to my Muslim followers and I wish you a peaceful and blessed month !
