Does anyone know of any good filling foods to eat before the fast?
pasta, rice, soup, fruits…
It is important to eat carbs like potatoes Oatmeal pastas and breads. Fish is very filling as well as fruit and vegetables like apples oranges and grapes and salads.
anything with carbs- potatoes, pasta etc will keep u feeling fuller longer and give you ‘fuel’. also drink PLENTY of water, not all at once at the seuda, but keep a waterbottle nearby the whole day today (erev) and take sips every few minutes, it builds up ur body’s hydration slowly and keeps u hydrated for longer as opposed to just downing a waterbottle a few minutes before the fast. some ppl like powerade before a fast, but i think the benefits of powerade are more considerable if you drink it after the fast, cuz it replenishes you from dehydration
stay cool and have an easy and meaningful fast!
I mix a package of wide noodles with fried onions, a container of cottage cheese and sour cream and bake it until the top is a little crispy. salt and pepper can be added to taste. I find that carbohydrates and protein tend to work well in this fashion.
rescue37, do you think your recipe would work without the cottage cheese? I only have sour cream.
I take it that the noodles have to be cooked before baking it, or am I wrong with that assumption?
There’s some kind of minhag or inyan to eat lukshen and cheese erev tisha bav. I’m wondering if anyone knows the source or the reason for it?

the source is that its the only thing you are allowed to eat
Torah- why?
lots of grapes keep you from getting thirsty and hungry.
Lukshen is a great complex carb and protein, which digests slowly and cheese is a permissible protein to eat during the Nine Days. Most of all, they taste gerat together.
During the fast recipe:

Brown rice is excellent. Before the NYC Marathon, all the runners eats lots of spaghetti, because for once we want the carbs to stick to us.
