Hi Beth- We actually do not usually follow good food combining rules for Shabbat dinner. (Except for this week). It’s our “celebration day” of the week and so we just do as we wish. However, if we were ill or trying to heal or detoxing like we are now, we’d be more careful. Last night, we actually had no Challah. It was very strange. I debated making a freshly ground one, and I will for next week, but this time I didn’t want to add all that grain plus gluten, etc…and I knew we’d be attempting to get it all eaten in one day to avoid leftovers. But you can make sure to have lots of vegetables, little meat, low or no grain/carbs in the meal if you are having challah. And of course, the challah should not be a main part of the meal, especially if it’s not whole wheat. As far as dessert, you can make healthy, low or no-sugar things like apple crisp. Last night, we had fruit “ice cream” from frozen bananas.
