Rosh Hashana food

[cellio]

Friday we're having guests and eating:

• apples and honey (I have four varieties of apples, so everyone will get an assortment of slices)
  
• challah
  
• gefilte fish with carrots
  
• roasted chicken with oregano, rosemary, sage, and garlic
  
• acorn squash (baked, with either margarine or raisins and honey)
  
• coleslaw
  
• dessert (brought by guests)

Saturday lunch it's just us:

• apples, honey, challah
  
• chicken with apricot sauce
  
• pasta salad with vegetables
  
• coleslaw
  
• whatever dessert is left over from Friday

Saturday night is out. Sunday we're having guests who don't eat meat (but do eat fish):

• apples, honey, challah
  
• papaya (my usual "new fruit" is starfruit, but the store didn't have any)
  
• baked orange roughy (not sure exactly what I'm doing to it yet -- maybe with sliced tomatos and herbs, or maybe cooked in orange juice)
  
• acorn squash
  
• steamed broccoli florets
  
• cake, cookies

(I wanted soup with this meal, but the store didn't have any parve soups pre-made and I didn't have time to make something.)

Thanks for the tip! I might yet be able to pull that off.

(Sweat?)

To sweat vegetables is to cook them over gentle heat (usually low or medium-low) with a small
amount of fat, often in a covered pot. With sweating, vegetables release moisture and flavor and soften without
browning.
