Iftar is one of the most anticipated moments of the day during Ramadan. After hours of fasting, the last thing you want is to spend the whole evening in the kitchen, but you still want something delicious, satisfying, and special on the table.
That’s exactly where these recipes come in. With The Laughing Cow cheese as the star ingredient, you can put together iftar spreads that feel impressive without the effort.
Here are 6 simple iftar recipes from The Laughing Cow that are easy enough to prepare before the call to prayer, and delicious enough to become your Ramadan staples.
1. Sweet Potato Cheese Fritters
Crispy on the outside, soft and savory on the inside, these sweet potato cheese fritters are seriously addictive. Made with just three ingredients (sweet potato, Babybel Original, and tapioca flour), they strike the perfect balance between the natural sweetness of the potato and the rich, milky depth of the cheese. A light yet satisfying snack to kick off your iftar.
2. Premium Cheese Spring Rolls
Imagine a golden, shatteringly crisp spring roll wrapper giving way to a rush of warm, melted The Laughing Cow Creamy Cheese Triangle inside. It takes a beloved classic and elevates it into something genuinely indulgent. Set these on the iftar table and watch them disappear before anything else does.
3. Cheese-Stuffed Dates
Dates are a Ramadan essential, but this recipe transforms them into a truly elegant iftar appetizer. Each date is filled with The Laughing Cow Belcube, then finished with crushed almonds and a drizzle of honey. The result is a stunning contrast of sweet, creamy, and crunchy that comes together in just 10 to 15 minutes, without cooking required.
4. Cheesy Fruit Salad
After a long day of fasting, your body craves something light, hydrating, and nourishing. This Cheesy Fruit Salad delivers on all three. Fresh seasonal fruits are brought together with the creamy richness of The Laughing Cow cheese, making a refreshing iftar opener that’s as healthy as it is satisfying. No cooking needed, just toss and serve.
5. Mini Martabak
Martabak is a Ramadan crowd-pleaser, and this mini version makes it even more irresistible. Bite-sized and loaded with a generous, gooey Laughing Cow filling, these little pockets are soft and warm in all the right ways. They’re exactly the kind of iftar snack that has everyone reaching for seconds before the main meal even starts.
6. Creamy Chia Pudding
Close your iftar with something light, nourishing, and genuinely satisfying. This creamy chia pudding blends fiber-rich chia seeds with the smooth creaminess of The Laughing Cow for a dessert that’s as good for you as it tastes. The best part? Prepare it the night before, and by the time the fast breaks, it’s perfectly set and ready to serve. Arguably the smartest simple iftar recipe on this list.
