Mini Fruit Pops
These Mini Fruit Pops are the best, most refreshing way to end a Yom Tov meal. Yom Tov meals are festive, joyous and at times… heavy. After an appetizer of these amazing pulled beef egg rolls, a soup and a main like this standing rib roast (I prepare it for Pesach the same way but

Small Things That Elevate Your Yom Tov Table
Often, it’s one new item that makes it exciting to set your table again. I love setting up a beautiful table, but I also get bored fast of the items that I own and of always having the same look. Sometimes you want something new and different, while at the same time you don’t want

9×13 Life: The Cookie Crust Cheesecake for Pesach

This 9×13 cheesecake is perfect for breakfast and kosher for Pesach! Prep it in a bowl with just a whisk. Last Pesach, I had an epiphany. I would kasher my milchig oven and bake cheesecake.

Corn Riblets
You can make them at home. And, surprise, they taste even better than in any restaurant. I went to my WhatsApp history and actually looked this up, because it was kind of important for me to know, and yes, already back in the beginning of 2022 we wrote a corn riblets recipe. No, you never

Outrageous Tropical Fruit Salad
You can make this one year round with fruits that you find at your corner grocery (and the freezer aisle!) I used to make a version of this salad years ago. It was my signature dish, and the funny part is, there is no cooking involved. Somehow, my guest always knew that there was a

Vacation in a Kitchen-Less Hotel. Now What?
5 Days. 2 adults. 4 kids. 15 meals. No kitchen. Seriously? Yes, seriously. Hotel cooking is doable, all you need is a bit of planning and a sink. Also a sandwich maker. Maybe an electric burner.
