The Return of the Shabbat Menu

[gnomi]

This week, we're home for dinner and out for lunch. Our original set of guests (new neighbors and their two-year-old son), for whom this menu was originally tailored, had to cancel on us, but by then mabfan and I were in the mood for fleishigs (meat) (which I had planned due to the new people factor). And thus we have same menu but different guests. Our new guests are three folks with whom we've been friends for a while.

And the menu is:

-- Grape juice & challah
-- Gefilte Fish a la Jen (though she says it's Meir Green's recipe)
-- Brisket a la lcNlc with potatoes and carrots (but no onions due to guest allergy)
-- Pasta salad to be brought by guest
-- Broccoli-rice casserole from a recipe I mostly made up
-- Brownies (recipe from dancingdeer but without the peppermint or cocoanut)
-- Cookies from the same bakery where I got the challah
-- Coffee and/or tea for those that want

I didn't know Meir made gefilte fish. I spent Passover at his family's house and somehow the subject never even came up.

Oooh! Broocoli-rice casserole sounds delish! Care to share the menu!

And good shabbos!

I would let the "cocoanut" typo go by without saying anything, except I now have an image of a marvelous land where the cocoa beans are larger than a softball and filled with chocolate milk.

I blame the fact that I'm reading a book about the Cocoanut Grove fire.
