Low-budget, rustic, Rosh Hashanah dinner?
I'm trying to do something special, but our budget is tight. It's just the two of us, and it needn't be fancy.
I'm making challah, but I'd really like to not just have frozen fishsticks and box mac and cheese with it.
Suggestions on a low-budget, rustic, Rosh Hashanah supper for two?

You can make a roasted chicken, or even just a couple of drumsticks (cheaper and faster), with honey-mustard glaze. I love the couscous idea - if you add some fresh veg (like minced red onion and garlic, diced bell pepper and/or tomato and/or corn, and fresh herbs) and olive oil, it'll make a delicious and festive side. And a couple of apples with honey for dessert! (honey is on sale in many supermarkets now, and it's apple season, after all.) Shana Tova!

L'Shanah Tovah Tikatevu!
Challah is a great start. I hope you're adding raisins! How about roast chicken, carrot rounds, and round pasta? (To play up the "round = money = good" theme : )
And to finish, a simple apple tart / mini pie with honey glaze? Amy's Organic actually makes a very good frozen apple pie.
