Passover Menu

I don't have the recipes for these dishes but the menu sounds delicious so I will be looking for some recipes:

3 glasses of wine
1 bowl of rich Matzoh ball soup with 1 matzoh ball
1 piece of Quiche
4 caramelized carrots
1 large scoop of sweet potato and date casserole
4 (or 6?) pieces of butter-soft, slow roasted beef brisket
Desert:
4 slices of pineapple drizzled in brandy
1 piece of raspberry torte with a dollop of whipped cream
1 5-inch wide macaroon cookie dipped in dark chocolate

So, with all of that, I'm guessing around 500-600 calories, right? That's my best guess.

Oh, and let's not forget that her mom sent me home with: more soup with more matzoh balls, 1 large scoop of casserole, 8 more carrots, another big piece of quiche, 4 more pieces of brisket, more pineapple, more torte, and of course, 3 more macaroons. I think the bag weighed about 5 pounds. That can't be more that another 700 calories... I'm sure that's pretty close.
