When I sat down to plan this year’s menu, I just looked up the last several year’s worth of plans and tweaked them slightly as necessary. Selfishly speaking, having this blog makes menu planning for the chagim so much easier for me. (Or, perhaps, more accurately, less cumbersome)

Honey cake (not sure yet what I’m making), fruit saladĪ few thoughts on making yomtov menu planning & cooking easier Sweet brisket (I think I’m going to try this recipe, but may end up sticking to my tried-and-true Coca Cola brisket) Round Braided Challah with Sweet Crumb Topping Second Day of Rosh Hashana, Lunch (12 people) Pumpkin muffins (I use this recipe, but make it in muffin tins – adjust bake time down a bit.

Second Day of Rosh Hashana, Dinner: Soup & Salad (6 people) Roasted green beans with caramelized onions Sweet & Sour Meatballs (the uber-simple recipe is in my Stress-Free Passover Book) and then the kids eat the rest 😉 )Īpple Stuffed Challah and Round Braided Challah, Apples & Honey Pomegranate Spritzers (pomegranate juice + bubbly Moscato wine, floated pomegranate seeds on top)Ĭolorful Beet Salad with Quinoa, Edamame & Carrots (we’re using edamame in place of black-eyed peas) – I made this year and it was so delicious!įish gummies (we bite off just the heads as our “fish heads”….

Download it HERE. Just ten days until Rosh Hashana! Are you feeling ready? Overwhelmed? In total denial?Īs I do every year, I’m sharing our Rosh Hashana menu plan -as much as for you as for myself (see why below!).Īs has become our family tradition, we eat fish Erev Rosh Hashana - not meat - as our main dish.
