A day-long fast during Ramadan can tempt one to go for a plate of fried or sugary snacks. However, Iftari food does not always have to be unhealthy. Try these snacks that combine taste with health. 

Turn dates into quick energy bites by mixing them with almonds, walnuts & a spoon of peanut butter. Roll the mixture into small balls and chill them for 20 minutes. This snack is filling and tasty. 

For a high protein option, simply mix boiled chickpeas with chopped onions, tomatoes, cucumber, coriander and a squeeze of lemon. Add a pinch of chaat masala and black salt for flavour.

Start with plain yoghurt and top it with fresh fruits like bananas, apples or pomegranate seeds. A drizzle of honey and a handful of granola or nuts can add both sweetness and crunch.

To make this quick Iftari dish, fill whole what wraps with sauteed vegetables like bell peppers, onions, carrots and spinach. You can add hummus or a yoghurt-based dip for extra flavour. 

Filling and tasty, this is a healthier alternative to traditional fried snacks. Slice sweet potatoes into thin strips, toss them with olive oil, salt and a little paprika, then bake them until crisp.
