Hanukkah Meal Planning Tips

Are you hosting a Hanukkah meal this year? Whether you’re a veteran host or this is your first time, we have a few Hanukkah meal-planning tips to help this year’s celebration go off without a hitch.

  • Cater It: There’s no shame in outsourcing your food. If you want to focus this year on other aspects of the party, hire someone else to cook it for you.
  • Potluck: Speaking of outsourcing, make the meal a collaborative affair. You make the main dish and ask your guests to bring the sides and desserts.
  • Make a shopping list: No one wants to leave the grocery store having forgotten an ingredient or a few. Preparation is the key to a successful and stress-free meal.
  • Eat out: Don’t feel like hosting or cleaning up dishes? We get it. Treat yourself to a night out at your favorite restaurant or one that serves a special Hanukkah meal for the occasion.
