Check out this complete guide to planning your Ramazan meals

Ramazan is a month for reflection and sacrifice. It’s a month to spend with the people who matter to us the most. Mothers, however, often have to switch between work commitments, meal preparations and Eid shopping. This leaves them little time to enjoy meaningfully with their loved ones.

Foodpanda wants to make this fasting month easy for all mothers, young or old, working or not, and they’re offering these tips to make this holy month even more special.

Smart for Sehri

Spend your morning wisely and have something light yet smart to begin the day.

What to eat?

Smart meal choices help sustain energy levels and inspire better focus throughout the day.

Start your pre-dawn meal with whole grains such as brown rice or whole wheat.

Top them up with delicious fruits rich in vitamins or add healthy proteins such as lentils.

Finish up with an energy-boosting smoothie.

How to order?

Pre-order fresh and filling meals from Subway by 3 AM and healthy juices and smoothies from Greeno. Foodpanda will deliver in time for the most fuss-free way to prepare for Sehri.

Healthy for Iftar

With a wide range of healthy restaurants on the platform, mums can spend less time shopping for ingredients and preparing meals, yet still enjoy the benefits of nutritious food.

What to eat?

Break your fast with light starters such as a soup or a light salad.

Follow it up with protein-rich foods such as steaks, vegetables and lean meats.

Complete the meal with a selection of fresh fruit!

How to order?

Order in from Chatterbox, Arcadian, Kababjees, Lachine, Pantry, Ginsoy or Tao latest by 6:30 PM for a complete Iftar meal for your whole family.

Celebrate their first Ramazan

Getting a child ready for Ramazan can be tough, but when you adapt together, it adds to the joy and festivity of the occasion.

What to eat?

Positive reinforcement helps; and so does a sweet treat as a reward. Order a special dessert to celebrate this milestone with your children.

How to order?

Order the amazing Ramazan Deals from KFC, OPTP, Hardees, Nando’s or Pie in the Sky for child-friendly meals and desserts.

With the best selection of restaurants in the city, mothers can have delicious and nutritious meals delivered to their doors right on time for Iftar and Sehri.

Kindness – a tap away!

Giving back and being kind to society is a virtue to strive for during Ramzan.
