Don't know if it helps, but what my kids like best about any kind of soup is that they can dump mountains of soup nuts on top...

Chicken fingers
Served with tehina and ketchup
Brisket
String bean with almonds slivers
Stewed zucchini and tomato
Rice with crispy top (yes I know it’s not low carb)

Should I just ditch the soup
Or will a light soup be appreciated

Both me and my husband as well as our young kids really like this soup!

Cauliflower Mock Potato Soup

1 large onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbsp oil
2 large zucchini, peeled
1 lb. frozen cauliflower
1 Tbsp salt
dash of (white) pepper

Saute onion and garlic in oil until translucent. Slice zucchini and add to pot, together with cauliflower and seasoning. Add water until the vegetables are just covered. Cook for 30 minutes and then blend with a hand blender until smooth & silky.

Thanks everyone
Decided to ditch soup
The reason I can’t leave the appetizers out is because one of the guest is bringing the tray.

OP, I presume the appetizers are part of your menu as part of Syrian Jewish culinary tradition. Do you serve them on both Leil Shabbat and Shabbat day?
My Syrian Jewish neighbor once told me that chicken roasted with pre-fried potatoes is almost universal as a Leil Shabbat main dish. Is this still true today?

I live in South Florida and rarely make soup for Shabbat.
I eat very clean and low carb.

This Shabbat I’m having 2 young couples and 2 toddlers. The weather will get very cold for us.

What soups do ppl usually like? What do little kids like?
Chunky? Smooth?
I want something light that will still give them an appetite to eat the rest of the meal

I prefer smooth blended soup , but I don’t know if everyone enjoys that

All soup seems to have a very filling quality to it. I think amount served is more important than type in making sure people don't fill up too much.
I have sometimes served a fish chowder as my fish course so I can have fish and soup in one course.

Hii I’m not op but maybe I can help?
It really depends on each family! Mostly everyone I know has chicken and potatoes Friday night but doesn’t have to be every Friday night... you can skip a few Shabbats it’s no biggie however the kibbeh and lachmagine aka maza is something you’ll see every Shabbat in a Jewish Syrian household. Some family even have it pre Shabbat as well.

Thank you for responding. You have the appetizers both at night and during the day? You make the intricate ones like kibbeh yourself or do you buy them?

Again really depends on each family like with my in laws they have the appetizers before Shabat throughout the day and then my mil will serve what’s left either that night or next day with cholent. My mom on the other hand only serves Friday night and Saturday, she never puts our before. When I was in high school it was a thing to pick up mazza and just munch with friends. Really it’s not so filling unless you eat a lot of it, it’s mostly finger food.

Me myself I personally love to make by hand but I’m not so good at it also I need the time, my mother is a pro kibbeh maker I’m jealous she is old school and would never buy..most people I know just buy it

( also I hope any other Syrian Jews on this site don’t think I’m talking for all Syrian Jews.. everyone does their own thing and I respect that )
