Moroccan Style Appetizers for Iftar: the Meal that Breaks the Ramadan Fast

Yesterday was the first Friday of Ramadan, the month of fasting for Muslims around the world. And there are some really delicious Mediterranean dishes shared at this time of year.

This Ramadan I’m not sharing our Ramadan meals on social media due to the immense suffering of the people of Gaza, including a nearly 100% rate of food insecurity throughout the entire strip and a famine and starvation occurring in the northern part of the strip, which is likely to worsen (particularly for children), unless there is a cease fire soon.

That said, my dedication to this newsletter is what keeps me writing about food and to share recipes and traditions in the hopes of preserving them for future generations as well as to inspire nutritious eating and a healthy way of life overall.
