Chanukah! We haven't had lots of oily food (though I would say it is probably enough), so it's time to pay homage to the miracle of oil that lasted 7 extra days.
Tonight we'll have Latkes!
However, my girls don't like latkes, and my stomach doesn't like latkes (the oil doesn't agree with me)...
So here's our compromise:
Leftover split-pea barley stew from Shabbat
Latkes with sour cream or applesauce
Stuffed Baked Potatoes for those of us with latke-issues
Make-your-own-Salad (we have tomatoes, greenish/yellowish peppers, avocado, carrots, and honey-cinnamon'd oranges - oranges from our tree)
Chanukah Sameyach! Enjoy your latkes!
I started this site because so many of the frugal food sites I love are just jam-packed with recipes that are decidedly un-kosher. And lots of other frugal living sites are extremely religious, and not in a Jewish way. And that just wasn’t working for me. I hope that I can share some ways to be frugal AND kosher. And share some of my thoughts about our life since making Aliyah. Oh, and if you share my recipes, menus, musings, etc, please link back to this blog. Thank you.
Your girls don't like latkes!??! How is this possible?
ReplyDeletethey will eat a few bites, but they have GERD and can't tolerate oily food, spicy foods, acidic foods...
