How about we share our Chanukah party menus?

I'll start - what we are doing for our family chanukah party is a recipe party. Everyone needs to bring a main dish or a salad and a dessert. Then everyone has to bring a copy of each of the recipes that we will collate into a cookbook that will be the "present" for chanukah.

These are our mains:
Tuna potato quiche
mac and cheese
baked ziti
another pasta dish
broccoli and cauliflower with cheese sauce
cesear salad
soup

Desserts:
apple pear pie
cinnamon coffee cake
brownies
babka
fudge squares

I also might start off with some milchig dips, crackers and chips.

Please share what you are serving.
Thank you

We're not making a chanuka party, but we're making an upsherin on sunday iy"h. Since it's starting at 4, we're not serving dinner, but we'll be serving cake, maybe ice-cream, vegetable platter, and maybe potatoe latkes. I didn't even think of latkes until I read it on this thread. It's a good idea because, hey, it is chanuka.

Sure!

This was posted on Weight Watcher's in October. I modified it by using sweet potatoes (more fiber, nutrients) and added a little more egg since the first batch fell apart.

Eat 'em for breakfast (yummy with pumpkin butter this time of year), snack, with din, etc.! Enjoy!


1 large Yukon Gold potato(es), peeled--CHANGED TO SWEET POTATOES
1 medium apple(s), such as Pink Lady, peeled, cored, quartered
4 tsp dehydrated onion flakes
1 large egg(s), beaten
1/4 tsp table salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
3 spray(s) cooking spray
1/2 cup(s) fat-free sour cream

Instructions
Shred potato and apple into a medium-size bowl using the fine-holes of a box grater or shredder; stir in onion flakes. Press out as much liquid as you can by hand; drain liquid. Set aside mixture for 1 minute and press out liquid again; drain again. Stir in egg, salt, pepper and cinnamon.

Coat a very large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Drop potato mixture by tablespoonfuls into skillet and flatten each with the back of a spoon to make twenty 2-inch latkes. Leave at least 1 inch between latkes; you will have to do this in batches.

Cook latkes until golden on first side, about 3 minutes. Gently flip latkes with a spatula and cook until other side is golden, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Carefully remove latkes to a serving plate; cover to keep warm and repeat with remaining ingredients. Top with sour cream and serve. Yields 2 latkes and 2 1/3 teaspoons sour cream per serving.

1 point per serving
