I can’t believe it’s the June issue already! Summer is here and Ramadan is just around the corner. That also means that it will not be as easy to get lunch at the office and a lot of restaurants and cafés may be closed until sunset. So for this month’s issue, I decided to share some light lunch recipes that you can easily prepare the night before and take with you to the office. I promise your co-workers will be jealous when they catch you eating these meals! Not only are these dishes delicious, but they also don’t necessarily need heating up and are easily portable too.
