Keep this chocolate cookie crunch and this butterfinger candy in the freezer all summer long for your summer dessert needs. Really, when I need to make a dessert that needs to be transported, I have a hard time. To me, dessert means ice cream and sorbet. And when it’s time to be creative and think…
The Shabbos Planner for Organized Types
It’s your worksheet for knowing exactly what you need to buy and cook, day by day of the week. I know that most of us make it to Shabbos every week without a worksheet like this, but I find it very helpful. It’s grounding. I don’t need to think. All I need to do is…
Cherry Praline Sundaes
You’ve never tasted ice cream like this before. With praline, dairy streusel, fresh cherries, and balsamic glaze, this is as flavorful as ice cream sundaes get. Really, I don’t remember how this combination came about. I was planning a sheva brachos and I was in the mood to be creative. It was the summertime, August…
Pear Parmesan Salad
This Pear Parmesan Salad with praline is that perfect, dairy salad that your guests (and you) look forward to. I turn back to this salad almost every time I’m hosting a dairy meal, and every single time, I start from scratch. “What did I do last time?” “What did I put in the dressing?” “How…
Crunchy Broccoli Slaw with Kale
This is the feel-good salad with barely any chopping required. If you see kosher broccoli slaw (made from the broccoli stems only) in your local supermarkets, this is what you should prepare with it. Honestly, I never was compelled to buy broccoli slaw because what would I do with it? I like my cole slaw…
2025 Post-Pesach Grocery Shopping Information
Where can you safely buy chametz after Pesach? Every year, the AKO (the umbrella organization of all kashrus organizations) updates the list of supermarkets to inform us of where it’s permissible to buy chametz. While we know that our local kosher supermarkets sell their chametz, it’s not always so clear when it comes to larger…

Pesach Ice Cream Sandwiches
Chocolate chip cookies, ice cream, and sprinkles are so much better together in this Pesach dessert. This is the perfect example of two things that are just ok on their own being way more amazing together. When I’m hosting a lot of people for a meal over Yom Tov, rather than be busy making lots…
Pesach Barbecue Sauce
Make a double (or triple) batch and use this BBQ sauce over and over again this Passover. There was one Pesach where I resolved: I am no longer going to experiment with meats for Pesach. The most popular main I made each year was simply whatever type of meat I served with this sauce. There’s…
Kosher for Pesach Beef Jerky
Yes, you can make kosher for passover beef jerky with one simple ingredient swap. Pineapple juice is the secret ingredient that will tenderize your meat. Often, when discussing Pesach content, my colleagues sometimes express in astonishment, “They make [insert name of ingredient] for Pesach?!?” The truth is, we’ve really tried over the years, to stick…
