Actually, my dd makes it. I think this is what she does.

Boil beets until tender. Cool, Peel.Slice thinly.

Put in a bowl and mix with vinegar, a little oil, salt, pepper and a little sugar.

I'll double check with her when she gets home. If it's any different I will post it later.

pinktickel- can I have your pea salad recipe? Can I use frozen peas?

It calls for frozen peas. To be honest, I've never made it before but my SIL makes a similar one and it's delicious.

1 (1 lb) bag frozen peas, uncooked
3 stalks celery, diced
3 scallions, diced
1 jar pimentos or 1 diced red pepper
2 t sugar
1 t salt
2 T mayo

Mix e/t together!

I'm not making anything because I'm sick, I think I'll get DH to cook this week.
I haven't even gone shopping this week, its been the worst week ever. All I really need is a nice bowl of chicken soup.

I've been totally exhausted as my due date approaches, so I tried to keep things simple, even though we're having guests….

Home-baked challah (bought the dough)
Gefilte Fish (bought ready made....only 20 cents more than doing it myself and they even use the same brand I use!)
Mixed green salad with cherry tomatoes and heart of palm
Chicken soup (used frozen homemade stock to reduce work)
Zuchinni onion kugel (this required the most effort of the meal!)
Steamed broccolli
Roasted Chicken

Brownies (I bought a mix….I know, I suck)
Tea biscuits
Orange wedges

Shabbos day:
Just DH and I......leftovers!!
Tea

Not chancy123, but here goes:

Pickled Meat (Brisket or other similar cut)

4 lb. pickled meat (brisket or other similar cut like top rib, dekel, etc.)
1 c. light brown sugar
1/3 c. ketchup
3 T. apple cider vinegar
2 T margarine, melted
1 T mustard

Boil pickled meat in water to cover, then simmer for a few hours until tender. Slice meat across the grain. Combine remaining ingredients in saucepan and bring to boil. Cook until smooth. Pour over sliced meat and bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes.

If you cannot purchase already pickled meat and want to pickle it yourself, I'd suggest you look into purchasing a product called "Mortons Tender Quick" (has O-U hechsher) which makes it easy and fast.
