Luckily for me, we belong to a family that doesn't believe in making a big deal of seudos on Rosh Hashana. We're also big into traditional foods. Also, after eating the simanim at night, we have hardly any appetite and during the day davening ends so late that no one has energy to eat too much.

Menu:

Night:
simanim –apple in honey, fish head, beets, carrots, leek, gourd, dates, black-eyed peas?
salmon
chicken soup
square lukshen
honey-mustard chicken
farfel
tzimmes
compote

Day:
gefilte fish
goulash
spätzli
salad
apple crisp

Night:
shehechiyanu fruit
simanim
salmon
soup with lukshen
schnitzel
tzimmes
farfel
plum torte

Day:
gefilte fish
schnitzel or goulash
beet? salad
farfel
compote or fresh fruit

Night:
fish
soup
chicken
yerushalmi kugel
salad
apple crisp

Day:
eggs
cholent
kishke
potato kugel
deli meat
leftover side dishes
compote

Apple crumble? I dunno about a recipe. I just slice up apples (peel them, slice 'em, stick 'em in the pan...enough apples for whatever size pan I'm using) and the topping is instant oats with brown sugar and margarine. I think it's around a cup of oats to 1/3 c. brown sugar & 1/3 c. margarine. You can get away with less margarine if you melt it as it mixes better. I just stick all the coating ingredients in a bowl and mash with my hand, then pat it down on top. Bake at about 350 until it smells done.

I finally sat down last night and made my menu. It's subject to change without notice. :D We don't use mayo or vinegar on RH, which limits the amount of salads I can make. :( I haven't decided yet what to serve each day.

Fish
Roasted cauliflower soup

Salads
Tri-colored pasta salad
Cucumber dill salad
Vinaigrette (made with lemon juice instead of vinegar)
Corn salad
Avocado salad
Thai slaw salad
Chickpeas
Cole slaw (Shabbos)

Main Dishes
Mushroom stuffed chicken
Tomato basil chicken
Asian style silver tip roast beef
Cholent

Sides
Rosemary potatoes with shallots
Sesame broccoli
Sweet and sticky green beans
Cold cut roll (I have to figure out what to put inside, b/c I usually make it with mustard and sourkraut. Unless I save it for Shabbos.)
Mushroom roll
Roasted garlic asparagus

Desserts (I decided not to go too heavy on the desserts b/c shul ends late and noone will be in the mood after a full meal.)
Upside-down marsala apple cake
Banana caramel cream pie
Marble chiffon cake

My MIL's Apple Honey Chicken (without which it would not be Rosh Hashana!)

NOTE: This really only turns out well in an oven-proof crockery dish, although Pyrex is OK. If you need to use foil or metal, it doesn't caremelise nicely, but is still pretty good.

1) Slice onions thin to cover bottom of dish
2) Place chicken portions on top of onions (bone in or boneless)
3) Core and slice apples thinly (I use granny smith, but sweet works too) and arrange around chicken.
4)Mix honey, small amount of lemon juice, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder (plus any other seasonings you fancy)
5) Pour over chicken, apples and honey.
6) Bake at 350 until done (usually about 1 hour for bone-in pieces). Start covered but uncover for the last 1/2 hour at least. May need basting.

Reheats well. Very elegant and quicker cooking with boneless skinless chicken breasts.
