- Community rituals: keep meals sharable and considerate of community norms.
Practical Meal Templates
Suhoor options (pre-dawn):
- Egg-and-avocado bowl with a sprinkle of za’atar and olive oil.
- Full-fat yogurt with seeds and a small serving of berries (if tolerated).
Iftar options (sunset):
- Start with water, a few dates to ease stomach stimulus, then a brothy soup with bone broth and lemon.
- Main: grilled fish or chicken, roasted non-starchy vegetables, and a fattier side like tahini-dressed salad.
