The nutty dip that fills in for a favorite. Years ago, I first learned about this concept when one of my neighbor’s mothers-in-law came for Pesach. Since then, it’s been a Pesach staple. While it was originally published in Passover Made Easy, I’ve double the recipe here because it makes it much easier to blend….

Creamy Avocado Dip
It’s simple, but it’s definitely a staple. Back in 2017, we posted all our favorite Pesach dips together in two posts, with a few dips in each post. These are more than staples–they’re annual must haves. Because of the format of our new recipe index’s search features, we’re separating these dips into their own posts…
Sweet Romanian Eggplant Dip
The #1 most made Pesach dip Since this recipe was first featured here six years ago, it’s been the #1 must-have go-to among us at BCP. It goes on all of our Pesach menus, every single year. We love it because it’s loaded with fresh flavor, yet it’s still light and healthy (unlike the heavier…

Crispy Pargiyot over Caulirice and Israeli Salad
That easy, comes-together-in-minutes Chol Hamoed dinner that’s fresh and flavorful. I believe Pesach foods should be just as delicious as all year foods–no compromises. So my dinners for chol hamoed mirror my usual weeknight dinners with just slight adaptations. Here I baked pargiyot (skinless, boneless chicken thighs) because they’re incredibly tender and juicy, then chopped…
