No Rosh Hashanah celebration dinner last night. But I did incorporate some apples and honey into the meal.
During the day, I pressed a package of thawed leafy greens from Whole Foods
Sauteed in Coconut Oil with Crushed Garlic, Ginger, and the juice of a lemon
There’s the apple…
…and there’s the honey
No Challah, but we had leftover corn muffins from The Farm in the freezer
Toasted and crumbled on top
Dessert was inspired by the holiday too – a chocolate covered coconut macaroon with nuts (okay, fine, it was an Almond Joy)…
…and a little piece of vegan blintz
Cold peaches + hot cocoa to ring in the sweet new year
If you celebrated, what was on the menu?

I adore challah, but corn muffins sound great too! Is that a tofu press you used to press the greens? What a smart idea!
yes it’s my tofu press!
Congrats on the great reviews!!
God, I love your weird one-bowl meals. They make me feel like making dinner at home is so totally doable, and I have no excuse. Keep it up!
I had apple/honey last night, but you definitely fulfilled the criteria too! (Also on the menu was fish, lots of fish, and fried matzo). Congrats on the release! Hope it goes well!
Happy NY…so did you take on the Jewish faith? Congrats too on the release..uber supa star you are!
Check out Smitten Kitchen – she had a beautiful recipe for Challah…

no…we’re not at all religious – but i love the traditions associated with holidays…okay, i love the food…
Happy New Year! Although I’m not Jewish, a few of my friends are and it’s fun learning about the traditions!
The spinach looks fab! And I’m so excited about your movie!
That looks delicous!
