לְשָׁנָה טוֹבָה
L'shana Tovah!
Happy New Year!

First night's dinner was spent at the local CHABAD. For the salad course the rebbetzin served:
apples and honey
challah
fish head
spinach salad with apples
hummus
baba ganooj with pomegranate perils
homemade shug
and
salmon skewers

Main course was:
brisket
green beans
and
carrot, sweet potato and apricot tzimmes

I didn't stay for dessert, as many of the food already served already had way more carbs than I typically eat. I'm sure honey cake was included.

Last night's dinner for second night Rosh HaShannah was made as low carb as I could. After all, it is still a holiday! But, I think I did pretty well.

Round lupin flour challot

Two kinds of challot, plain and everything. The basic dough is the same.

Orange ginger chicken made in the Instant Pot over cauliflower rice. Served with roasted carrot and avocado salad with flavors reminiscent of tzimmes without the dried fruit and sweet potatoes made by SD.

"Honey" and Coffee Glaze on the "honey" cake

Glaze spread out so it isn't all pooled in the center of the cake.

Glaze hardened after sitting out for a few hours.
