-peeled and diced 1 Butternut squash,
-peeled and diced 4 Tart apples, peeled,
-cored and diced 1/3 c Passover wine, sweet, red
1/2 lb Prunes, pitted and
-halved 1/3 c Water
1/3 c Sugar
1 t Cinnamon, ground
1/2 t Nutmeg, ground
1/2 t Ginger, ground
Combine all of the ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well to distribute the liquid evenly. Dump into a baking dish and seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and a lid. Bake 1 hour at 350 F.

It benefits from being made ahead and then heated for the Seder. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 10 minutes preparation, 1 hour cooking. : Precision: no need to measure. : Brian Reid : DEC Western Research Laboratory, Palo Alto CA : reid@decwrl -or- decwrl!reid : Copyright (C) 1986 USENET Community Trust

Tropical Tzimmes
It wouldn't be Passover without tzimmes (pronounced tz-imm-es). This traditional Jewish stew is made from root veggies (sweet potatoes and carrots) mixed with dried fruit.
In a twist, this recipe replaces brown sugar with Our Wee Farm honey by @lorenzaponce and it takes on a Polynesian flair with the addition of tropical fruits.

Tzimmes Making time for our Sedar
Tzimmes is a traditional Ashkenazi Jewish sweet stew typically made from carrots and dried fruits such as prunes or raisins, often combined with other root vegetables (usually yams).[Some cooks add chunks of meat (I added a 5 lb roast ! ) The dish is cooked slowly over low heat and flavored with honey or sugar and sometimes cinnamon or other spices. (I don't put any of that into mine but it is sooo sweet and yummy - our daughter-in-law Kasi actually gave me a fantastic compliment, she said she's never had anything so delicious !! )
We had a wonderful Sedar this afternoon .. wine flowed, chicken soup with matzo balls, tzimmes, choroset, matzo, matzo cake ... I'm sure my parents were watching with smiles on their faces :) I had our oldest grandson and our youngest grandson at the table
