L’Shana Tovah to all those who are observing the Jewish New Year! The recipes below are wonderful seasonal dishes that work for anyone looking for some new Fall family-friendly favorites (think: crunchy apple salads, warming matzoh ball soup and a sweet and spicy roast chicken). They hit all our marks for go-to recipes—easy, kid-friendly (well, except for the cocktails…) and don’t take hours to make. Because honestly, who has time for that, especially in a pandemic back-to-school season?
