I’m back in LA after 2½ weeks on the road—busy, busy, busy! With my daughter’s wedding coming up next month, the days are flying by, but I’m feeling grateful, especially that my friend Lydia is hosting us for Rosh Hashanah again this year.
On the cooking front, I just shared a new recipe on Instagram that I’m obsessed with: salmon with avocado and citrus vinaigrette. It’s simple, fresh, and full of flavor—you’ll definitely want to check it out!
Here’s your dinner planner for the week:
Monday (first night of Rosh Hashanah): my friend Lydia has hosted us the last few years. Here are some things she makes: brisket, herb sweet and spicy salmon from Quicker Than Quick, and latkes. Orange and Rosemary- Glazed Chicken, Lemon-Sumac Chicken, or Honey-Lemon Glazed Chicken, would also be perfect for the holiday. I am bringing my #1 RH salad, roasted apple and delicata squash salad. The sweet noodle kugel is always a holiday favorite. If you want to try your hand at making challah, here’s a recipe. I have so many lovely apple desserts like this, apple crumble cake, grain-free apple cake, perfect apple pie, and apple fritter skillet cake, and my newest recipe: Invisible Apple Cake. Here’s a Rosh Hashanah round up in case you need more inspo.
Tuesday: Eggplant Meatballs with pasta or spaghetti squash, plus broccolini with garlic, chili flakes, and vinegar
Wednesday: simple roasted salmon, Brussels Sprouts Salad with Truffle Vinaigrette, served with any leftovers
Thursday: Saucy Sesame Soba Noodles from Feasting at Home served with your choice of protein
Friday: Green Goddess Chicken Salad from Kitchen Matters
Saturday brunch: Savory Oats with Kale, Mushrooms and Walnuts
Sunday: Sheet Pan Chicken with Artichokes, Zucchini and Cherry Tomatoes served over white rice or cauli-rice
