This isn’t a new hack, but when reader Etty Lax let us know that she tried it with great results, we realized it would come in very handy right about now! It’s great for those who want a cute baking activity for the kids without much mess. It’s also great for those who are away…

Baby Corn Riblets
This restaurant favorite just might become your family’s favorite way to enjoy corn. We’re a family that loves anything corn. Corn muffins are #1. We also love Corn Soup (check out the recipe in Dinner Done). And Corn Puree–see Best of Kosher for our favorite sea bass recipe. So, when we came home from Miami,…
Orange Creamsicle Ice Cream
We all need these easy, refreshing dessert hacks in the summertime. This one is vintage. It’s exactly the kind of dessert you want to start making and serving right about now. For us, this is a long time family favorite. How long? Do you remember these containers of orange juice concentrate? Yes, you might need…
Plastic Spoon Salmon
Because sometimes you really need a no-dish dish. Sometimes, you have a very specific need when you need to prepare a dish. And sometimes, that need is to make a grownup dish (perhaps it’s a night when the kids are having pizza or pasta) and you can’t think about taking out a real bowl or…
Flavor Bomb Pesto & Chicken Caesar Salad
It’s simple but it packs in loads of flavor for a one-dish meal. At Between Carpools, we love those one dish meals that are healthy and light and do a good job pleasing at least a majority of the people. If you’re looking for salads that are a meal, we have this Ramen Crunch Salad…
Balsamic Dill Salmon
This one has become one of my go-to easy Shabbos day salmon recipes. With fresh herbs and served cold, it’s light, bright and perfect for a summer lunch. I was trying to track down the origin of this recipe, so I could share it with all of you. I’ve been making it for years and…
Caramelized Onion Chicken
It might take a couple extra steps–but this dish is that “notch up” chicken you’ve been missing on the menu. One afternoon, I set out to make Chicken Marsala for dinner. I didn’t, though, like the look of the mushrooms I had on hand. It was time to improvise. I worked with the remaining ingredients…
Coulis with Cheesecake Cream
Change up your coulis with a creamy, dairy addition. Ever since Renee and Leah wrote this recipe, it’s been hard for me to look past coulis when serving dessert on any Yom Tov. I use both the fruit version and the mango version as a base, and build the dessert up from there, making lots…
Cheesy Potato Blintzes
There are some traditional items we do not mess with! These blintzes are here to stay, just as they are. Every family seems to have their own Yom Tov recipe that has become a tradition, and this is ours. It’s one of those family nostalgic recipes that my mother has been making for forever. It…
Dairy Caramel Apple Galette
You might want to make a triple batch (count on one galette being finished when it comes out of the oven). (Plus: This is an egg-free dessert.) There’s a few special things about this galette. One: dairy pastry dough. When else do you get to enjoy a dough made with real butter? It’s worth it,…
