Rosh Hashana Tips- #1-Plan Menu, Generate lists


The countdown to Rosh Hashana has begun. Preparations can seem overwhelming but strategic planning can make this time period more productive and less anxiety-ridden. This week I'll be featuring time saving tips to get you out of the kitchen and on to your life.

Tip #1- Plan your Menus, Generate Shopping Lists, Start Shopping
- Plan all of your Rosh Hashana meals (keeping simanim- symbolic foods in mind)
- Try to plan further out as well (Pre Yom Kippur and Sukkos Meals) having your menus planned out enables you to shop more efficiently (take advantage of sales and bulk        
orders in advance) and cook in advance
-Generate shopping lists from your menus
-Shop around for the best prices and go through that list
(meat order, paper goods, grape/juice wine etc....)
try to order by the case if you anticipate using a lot of something
