Special Holiday Meals: Native American Recipes

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place BlogLeave a comment

There are several days that include Native American or Indigenous People Days and I know my family can trace its roots back to certain tribes. It is important to remember the people who came before us, and all that they sacrificed for us. I have made a menu to try for these days:

Native American Day Menu Ideas

Venison Chops w/Rice, Baked Salmon, or Slow Cooker Ribs

Three Sisters Soup, Rice or Quinoa, Fried Green Tomatoes, Tamales

Stuffed Acorn Squash, Succotash, or Butternut Squash Medley

Fry Bread, Bannock, or Indian Pudding

Biblical Feasts: Feast of the Trumpets Menu & Activities

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog1 Comment

If you’ve been around here for a bit, then you probably know that we have been on a journey to learn more about the Biblical Feasts. Well, the Feast of the Trumpets is almost upon us, and I decided that being prepared makes it more likely that I can follow through with the intentions of celebrating this year.

We plan to try to incorporate some traditional dishes, and we plan to eat by candlelight whenever possible. Please note that I am not an expert, and most of these ideas are just ideas that I have, and I can not say that they are traditional or ‘allowed’ for a traditional Jewish celebration.

Wine or Grape Juice is normally served with meals as well, although we will probably opt for sparkling juice, apple cider, or juice.

You can change whatever recipes you need to make this work for you… you can even buy premade foods and make this work. The idea is to celebrate your BLESSINGS and show THANKFULNESS to GOD.
