Have you ever felt like you were running out of fuel mid-day? Here are some sahur recipes you can incorporate into your lifestyle to keep you feeling good this Ramadan.

1. Oatmeal

Oatmeal gets its powerful reputation from its high fibre content. The beta-glucan keeps you feeling full for a long period of time, and it’s yummy too when it’s incorporated with your favourite ingredients.

Whether you enjoy the savoury or sweet version of oatmeal, having some in the morning will keep you feeling full throughout the day better than a piece of toast can! That’s why it’s such a popular breakfast choice.

2. Quinoa

Not only is quinoa packed with amazing nutrients, it’s also extremely filling! Adding some quinoa into your diet, along with a side of some of your favourite protein like egg or chicken, can do wonders for you this Ramadan!

Feeling full throughout the day, will also help you not overeat as you break fast for iftar, remember that.

3. Apples

The name of the game is fibre — anything that is high fibre, will inevitably keep you full for longer. Reach for your favourite variation of apple — be it green or red, and have it with a dip that you like — such as peanut butter or hummus. It’s tasty, and will keep you full for a long time!

4. Healthy fats

Avocado oil, coconut oil, olive oil, are all great healthy sources of fat! Avocados are an amazing breakfast choice, not only are they tasty, they are packed with healthy oils that are essential to our bodies.

We are often scared of oils, but healthy oils, can be a great accompaniment to our meals, it is an important part of the food pyramid that often gets sidelined.

Add some healthy fats into your diet, see what it can do for you to keep you satiated!

5. Eggs

Eggs can be enjoyed so many different ways, scrambled, fried, boiled, poached! You can even make little baby quiches or breakfast cups with them!
