The menu was posted on the Chicago Sun Times website for the 2010 White House seder today (click on title to link to it), and what do you know, it is pretty similar to the menu for our seder, so I am going to post ours.
Second Night of Passover Seder 2010
Haroset--both Apple and Date
Chicken Liver Pate
Matzah Balls in Chicken Broth (a particularly good batch)
Gefilte Fish (provided by Kineret Zabner, and also particularly good this year)
Deviled Eggs
Smoked Brisket in a Tomato BBQ Sauce
Smashed Potatoes
Braised Red Cabbage
Roasted Brussel Sprouts and Onions
Assorted Desserts, which included macaroons, chocolate covered matzah, brownies, chocolate cookies, orange chiffon cake, strawberries and whip cream, grapes, and mandarin oranges.
The food of the seder is symbolic. We use horseradish to remind us of the bitterness of slavery, we eat haroset to remind us of the sweetness of freedom, we eat eggs as a symbol of the glory of life as well as renewal, and we eat foods that remind us of our ancestors.
