Tu Bishvat is less than a week away.
We thought, what better way to celebrate than creating a Tu Bishvat-inspired Shabbat menu. These recipes are for people who love fruity, sweet elements in their dishes.
I remember when adding fruit to salads started to become popular, there were a lot of skeptics. Now, almost anywhere you go you can find some sweet element, whether it be an apple, dried cranberry, or fresh orange, in a salad.
I highly recommend the combo. The balance of flavors from the savory salad with elements of sweetness pairs beautifully with an acidic dressing. It’s a real winner!
Happy cooking,
