Reply To: What Are You Cooking For Shabbos???

Ah Ha!! I should have realized that that menu could not possibly be made by one person!! So there are 3 people cooking.

Sorry, my kitchen is tiny. NO ONE else is allowed in the kitchen when I am cooking or I start to get nervous.

I always make a different menu each Shabbat. I’ll make a soup, and/or a fish, depending on my mood and how much time I got. I’ll make a chicken soup or I have a really great receipe for a black bean and pumpkin soup, it’s so easy, all the ingredients are from a can and it’s really good. Even though we are sephardi, we do eat gefilte fish, It’s just so easy to boil the frozen ones in the pot, although, this past Shabbat, one of my children got upset and wanted me to make my saucy fish that I hadn’t made in a while. He doesn’t like gefilte fish too much, but he suprised me when he said he would take one slice. I always have a meat, either Roast, Chicken, or Turkey. Some type of potatoes, Red, Reg, Sweet Potato, Potato Kugel. then some kind of Mechse, (I gave descriptions on some earlier posts) & I usually have some beans like, string beans, peas. or I’ll make okra in a tomato sauce.

And as far as the “Ya’ll” goes, My husband was born in the south. He always says “You can take the boy out of the South, but you can’t take the South out of the boy!!”
