I want to cook for Shavuos on Sunday, what are you planning on making/serving. Meat, Dairy or Parve. I'm looking for ideas. What are yours?

Same. Although in the next week I have to at least start planning which meals we’re having guests or going out, etc.

The only thing I figured out this year is that I’m not making home made cheesecake. Yes it’s good. It’s delicius but so much work. And such a mess.

Should I start another thread? What about motzei Shabbos logistics? It's not like we can keep things warm.
Usually the first night is our milchig meal - salmon, Greek salad, blintzes (cheese, potatoes). I'm hoping it won't take long to reheat the blintzes, everything else will go straight from the fridge.

It's the same as second night of any yontif. I plan a cold appetizer and as long as I leave my oven on 250 or higher the rest of the food is warmed by the time we get through kiddush, motzei and the first course. Make sure everything is taken out of the freezer erev Shabbos.

I'm planning on making challah and cheese blintzes this Sunday. I haven't gotten farther than that.

I put up food on the plata in disposable pans and it takes really quick to heat up. The soup to goes into a disposable pan because in a pot it takes much longer. Main dish is something like thin sliced roast in liquid which takes really quick to heat through in an aluminum pan. We make side dishes that taste good at room temp.

Do you only use the plata for yom tov? I'd love not to leave the oven on as it makes my air conditioning run non stop. I'd put it on a timer so it won't be a safety hazard....

You can freeze cabbage and noodles? The noodles don’t get overly mushy and the cabbage release water when defrosting?
