Um, news flash: Shavuot starts tomorrow!
I’m usually pretty on top of sharing my menus here, but this year hasn’t been a normal year — to say the least!
And the last 48 hours in Israel have been especially crazy (welcome home Noa, Andrey, Almog and Shlomi!)! So, while I did make a menu plan yesterday (and I even grocery shopped for it today, along with half of Am Yisrael, it seemed, at least based on the 45 minutes I had to wait in line to check out!), I haven’t managed to share that menu… until NOW!
I apologize if this isn’t super helpful to those of you outside of Israel, since you have two days to plan for. I’ll share some links at the bottom of this post to give you a bit more inspiration! 🙂

Erev Shavuot Dinner
We were invited out (Yay!) and are bringing two salads: Arugula Salad with Beets and Feta and Fried Halloumi Salad.
Shavuot Lunch
Our family + 2 guests
-
Sweet Challah
-
Strawberry Mango soup (basically a smoothie in a bowl – I’ll share the recipe after chag if it turns out how I’m hoping)
-
Poached Salmon
-
Simple lettuce and vegetable salad (I figure we need something without dairy)
Late-night-learning / kiddush-in-the-morning treats
I usually make one or two sweet treats for my kids to enjoy while learning all night. Here are some of our favorites:
- M&M cookies (or just use your regular chocolate chip cookie recipe, but add in lots of M&Ms)
- 3-ingredient peanut butter cookiese
- Israeli no-bake cheesecake or this one is also amazing
- Chocolate cheesecake brownies
- Cinnamon rolls (these are pareve, but you could easily make them dairy – they are SO delightful warmed up on a plata (or in the oven)
