Salads for Rosh Hashanah

Given that much of the time during the two-day Jewish New Year holiday is spent either sitting in synagogue praying or sitting around the dining room table eating, it is a good idea to include salads on the Rosh Hashanah menu.
Pomegranate Apple Salad (Parve)
For lunch on the second day of Rosh Hashanah, after everyone feels a bit heavy from too many holiday meals, I like to serve this fresh and light Pomegranate Apple Salad. It complements the spirit of the holiday by using the two fruits upon which blessings have been made.
Sugared Almond Salad (Parve)
Paula Weinstein and Julie Remer's Kosher Sugared Almond Salad is the all-time favorite salad of my family and friends. Whenever we are invited to a potluck, I am asked to bring this salad. This sweet combination of lettuce, fruit and nuts makes this salad perfect for Rosh Hashanah dinner.
Jewish Nutrition: Rosh Hashanah Salad
Hannah Sommer, a nutritionist living in Jerusalem, provides a healthy and colorful salad with pomegranate seeds that is perfect for the Jewish New Year.
