Ramadan

Iftar and suhoor, planned around the clock instead of against it. Quick starters to break the fast gently, filling mains an hour later, and suhoor dishes that hold you through the day.

The first tested recipes are finishing now. The soups and healthy collections below already carry dishes that work for both meals tonight.

Who it is for

Fasting households planning two meals a day, and anyone cooking for friends who are. The timing notes respect maghrib, not the other way around.

Nothing here yet

This collection is new and the tested recipes for it are still in the kitchen. Everything linked below is ready to cook tonight, and new recipes land here every week.

Questions cooks actually ask

What breaks the fast first?

Traditionally dates and water, then a light soup. The soup recipes here reheat fast so the first course is ready at sunset.

What makes a good suhoor?

Slow release carbs and protein: overnight oats, egg dishes, and whole grains. The meal prep page packs them for the week.
