Yom Kippur Break-The-Fast Menu 2009

28 September 2009 1,147 views 3 Comments

I am definitely in denial about the High Holidays this year. I barely scraped into Rosh Hashana and am now getting ready for the start of Yom Kippur (I am writing this before it has begun). This year I am prepping my ‘break-the-fast’ menu as much as possible beforehand and am focusing on no-cook recipes.

Coconut-Raisin Challah
Easy Vegan Spicy Peanut Soup with Fresh Mung Bean Sprouts
Open-Faced Tomato, Mozzarella and Basil Sandwiches
Challah, Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon Sandwiches
Banana Mylkshakes
Hibiscus (Sorrel) Granita

Not only does this approach relieve a lot of post-fasting stress and preparation on my part, it also is budget friendly and gives me more time to get into the mental space for reflection that the next 25 hours require. This could definitely be the start of a lovely new tradition :)

To all who celebrate, have a safe and easy fast. G’mar chatimah tovah!

    Great menu! Easy to prepare and simple to digest… exactly the type of thing one needs after Yom Kippur! Had I only seen this before I broke fast… sigh hehe
