No time to post menu, but --

Last week I changed Clarissa's 2 layer brownies by substituting 3/4 c. peanut butter for the coffee, and adding a few Tbsp. water. They were yummy! You could put peanuts between layers as well.

This week my son came home and requested them with mint. I added 2 caps of peppermint flavoring and a few drops of green food color. I put the chocolate layer on top. Added a few Tbsp. water to @ -- more to choc layer. Also very good.

I use 1 c. cocoa instead of the chocolate. Chocolate chips are precious here, so I only use them on special occasions.

A guten Shabbos everyone!

Sounds like a delicious recipie Imaleah. Actually it must be next to impossible to get what you need where you are...wow...

I decided at the last minute to change shabbos plans and make a few homemade things and not only freezer, mostly because dh and I will be alone, all the kids are away for shabbos.

So I made two cornish hens which are big enough for the two of us for a meal apiece, rice, spaghetti squash as a veg and defrosted a sweet potato kugel and have a fresh lukshen kugel which was part of the batch that I froze for yuntif this week. I also defrosted a lentil and veg soup and a buckwheat cake (no gluten, better for the stomach for both of us if the kids aren't home) with cocoa frosting (sugar, cocoa, water, no fat). To this I will add salads of humus, techina and green salads. No time or strength to potchka with quinoa, edamame or any of the other things that I usually make, that can all wait until RH.

Thanks, rachie! I'd be happy to post the recipes for you. I'll try to post them later on today or else after shabbos.

it's habit from other posters here...to post challah and grape juice. I assumed it was a given myself...but when I saw it repeatedly posted I thought maybe I should make sure to write it (lest someone think we weren't having Wink

)

Challa from the freezer
Honey
Wine
Grape Juice
Turkey Meatloaf leftover
Chicken leftover
Rice/bulgur leftover
.... are you sleeping yet?

Fresh eggplant dip
Fresh lemon salad
Fresh zuccini

Yaptzik/Yapchuk/Yabtzek if I can figure it out
Salad

Cheese cake

I forgot to add: Kugel yerushalmi in the freezer. I think my kids want that more than they want rice/bulgur leftovers.

Not so many leftovers so I will really have to cook some things.

Challa ( no leftovers from RH)
fish
salads, whatever will be quick and easy
Soup and knaidlach (in freezer!)
roast
potato kugel
green beans

Apple cake
fresh fruit

I dont think anyone here really wants to look at food any time soon.

Weird mishmash dinner:

Leftover caramelized onion-mushroom soup with goat cheese croutons
Leftover pancakes and maple-apple topping (I froze the extra pancakes)
Leftover smoked trout with horseradish-dill-cream sauce and apples
Leftover potatoes au gratin
Broccoli rabe with garlic
Roasted carrots with citrus glaze
Not sure about dessert yet. Maybe chocolate almond mousse. Maybe not. We're still stuffed.

challah (from the freezer)
eggrolls (store bought from the freezer)
Soup with knaidlach (from the freezer, just add fresh veggies)
left over shoulder roast
left over orzo
left over green beans and tzimmes
left over sweet noodle kugel
Potato kugel (from the freezer - and only because my husband insists on potato kugel on shabbos)
left over ice cream brownies.

Yay!!! I think all I have to do for shabbos is peel soup veggies and put up a cholent!
