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,…

Basics: Homemade Caramel Sauce
Sure, you can buy it. But a homemade caramel sauce is just so good and satisfying. (Plus! No special equipment needed.) When you make caramel by yourself, you can taste the simplicity and purity. Plus: Caramel lasts a long time in the fridge, so you can even make it now for Shavuos. First, combine the…

Easy Summer Corn and Feta Salad
Enjoy it for Shavuos and then again and again all summer long. This fresh and bright salad will become a shalosh seudos favorite! We love corn on the cob in my house. And sometimes we buy too much of it. One Friday last summer we had a few extra ears that had to be cooked…

Chocolate Chip Cheesecake Squares

Chocolate chip cookies. Cheesecake. It’s really such a classic combination. This is an easy one you can stick in your freezer today and check off your list. Really, the concept is simple and it’s not new. Chocolate chip cookie dough on the bottom. Cheesecake filling. More chocolate chip cookie dough crumbled on the top. It…

Hot Dog Burnt Ends
This checks all the boxes: family-friendly, quick-to-prep, cost-effective…and best of all, deliciously smokey. I’m not sure if it’s just food people (food writers, avid cooks… ) that go through food phases. One example might be obsessing over a particular salad combination and making it over and over again. Or creating different variations of a similar…

The 9×13 Life: Peruvian Chicken
Just the right spice is the easiest way to fast flavor. In my house, aside from our Between Carpools favorites, I have my “top three go-to fast prep dinners.” One is my side of salmon, simple seasoned (curry + cumin + dill + garlic + salt + pepper) roasted at 425°F until crispy at the…

Lemony Lentil and Beet Salad
I’ve been a fan of this salad ever since I spotted it on someone else’s table. Many years ago, when I was a single girl in seminary, I was at Alice’s, a restaurant that used to be in Avenue U in Flatbush (no longer open), and I saw this salad come to someone’s table. It…

Bring Some Excitement To Your Table This Lag B’Omer!
A real fire, right on your plate. And it’s so easy! I was sitting by an event a few months ago; it was very elegant and the caterer did a phenomenal job with each and every course. Each dish was better than the next. How was this amazing meal going to end? Dessert showed up,…

Chili Lime Chicken Poppers
It’s always great to have more versions of your favorites. Our oven baked hot poppers from Dinner Done is hands down our family’s favorite recipe. This winter, I changed things up by using a new sauce on the poppers, creating BBQ Sticky Poppers. Yes, I know that when you find a good recipe that the…
