eating out all meals but I'm sure by day 3, meal 6 I'll be ready to build myself a little hut out of coca cola crates. I did make chicken soup and green vegetable soup enough for wherever I'm going so I can contribute. I also have pickled tongue I made. I'm planning on making the caramel pie that was in this week's Ami and one more dessert (was thinking BY Cookbook Tiramissu but sil is making it) and 2-3 salads.


Ra_mom where do you buy all those interesting salad greens? I'm assuming you check them yourself? also, what do you put into your avocado salad?

The arugala and baby spinach comes in a package from Fresh Express. It's not checked for bugs, but it's clean, so I check it quickly. Delicious mix.
Avocado salad is plum tomatoes, avocado, red onion, garlic, olive oil, lemon, s&p.

How many courses do you have for a night and day meal.
For nights I always have fish, soup, main and dessert.
Day is always a a starter and a starter and then main and dessert. I go crazy thinking of starters because everyone around here is sick of fish. So I do ambrosia and hten a knish with sauce. melon and then liver over rice. grilled salmon salad and then..............
I go crazy just thinking of entrees and appetizers! any ideas????

At night I serve fish and soup. During the day just a starter. Usually it's a token piece of fish and then something hot. No soup.

I decided to cut out the soup this year (dh agrees)- I feel its too messy hectic etc for the succah - so im also looking for special starters....there was a roasted sweat potato salad in this weeks family first that looked interesting.

If you are serving meat as a main you can do rice with sesame chicken. Or you can do salad with grilled chicken on top.

London Broil Roast

Marinated Vegetable Salad
http://www.foodnetwork.com/rec......html

Skirt Steak Salad
http://www.joyofkosher.com/rec.....alad/
3 Tbsp extra light olive oil, divided
1 1/4 lbs. skirt steak
1 1/2 cups baby bella mushrooms, sliced (1/2 of a ten ounce package)
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved (1/2 a pint)
1/2 red onion, sliced
1 head romaine lettuce (1 ten ounce bag)
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
4 Tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic, crushed
3/4 tsp Kosher salt
1/8 tsp black pepper

Rinse skirt steak well and pat dry.
In a small bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, olive oil, crushed garlic, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Heat a large dry skillet over medium heat. When you feel the heat rising from the pan, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cut the steak as necessary to fit into the pan. Sear skirt steak, 7 minutes, flip and finish 5 minutes on other side for medium/well done. Transfer steak to cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
Using the same pan, sauté the sliced mushrooms in the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil for 2 minutes.
Slice steak on slight diagonal, across the grain, in 1/4 inch slices.
Drizzle dressing over salad. Garnish with sliced steak.

I freeze the orzo plain. And also sauteed onions separately.
Crisp up the pastrami strips with the prepared onions right before.
Heat orzo, combine with crispy pastrami and golden onions, season with s&p.
