What’s refreshing you this summer? You don’t need to wait in line and spend eight dollars for a great summer drink. We keep these café style cups in my house and my daughters and I have fun making great summer drinks. Recently, the girls and their friends have enjoyed making drinks instead of baking (I’m not…

Sneaky Protein Pancakes & Smoothies
Do you need easy, kid-friendly meals When I was a younger mother, feeding picky eaters was a frustration for me and I needed to figure out creative ways to get them some more balanced nutrition. That’s when these pancakes came about. These protein-loaded pancakes were a dinner that made them happy and me too. Even…
Beet and Chickpea Salad
Just toss it all together (the fresh dill and parsley are a must!) and you have an amazing, nourishing, and filling salad that’s refreshingly different. I do like randomly trying new things–but often, it’s just one and done. The experiments are just to enjoy for the moment, but rarely on repeat (although when they are…
Creamy Chicken Tacos
Charred wraps, creamy chicken, and crunchy cucumbers make this a family-friendly summer dinner everyone, from kids to adults, will love. Hands down, all my kids will eat cucumbers if I add some lemon juice, salt, and pepper. They will also pretty much eat anything I serve them in a charred wheat wrap. And so this…
Feta Eggplant Carpaccio
Yes, it’s worthwhile to share yet another version of Eggplant Carpaccio on BCP. This time, it’s a creamy dairy one and you are going to love it! We love sharing Kosher Kopykat recipes here on Between Carpools. These are our recipes that have been inspired from kosher restaurants–usually based on a specific dish we enjoyed…
The Har Sinai Ice Cream Cake
If there’s one dessert you will make for your children this Shavuos, this ice cream cake is it. It was at our Between Carpools Shavuos planning meeting that this brainstorm came about. We knew we wanted to include a Har Sinai cake. But what? It had to be cute. And easy and fun to prepare….
No-Bake Strawberry Cheesecake Mousse Pie
Don’t want to use the oven? Make this creamy, light, and refreshing strawberry cheesecake mousse pie. If you don’t have a milchig oven, guess what–there’s still lots of creamy, dairy, delicious desserts you can make. This Coulis with Cheesecake Cream is one of them. These Frozen Lotus Cannolis are another. There’s also lots of great…
Romaine, Apple, and Fennel Salad
This refreshing Romaine, Apple, and Fennel Salad is both different and quick to prep. Plus–you can do it all quickly on Yom Tov. If you love dairy salads (I do), this one is refreshingly different, while being simple and delicious. Sometimes, I like when a salad has ingredients that can be prepped ahead. Other times,…
Sushi Salad Side Of Salmon
It’s a side of salmon, but it’s also…fun. If you are looking for a way to make sure your fish course isn’t boring, you have found it. Also, if you are looking for that perfect fish that EVERYONE will love (even kids), you have found it, once again. This recipe was born out of a…
Beef Negimaki
These Beef Negimaki are the perfect portions of tender, juicy steak. First off, we apologize to the butchers this season for featuring two recipes that entail some extra labor. Between the prep required for the Beef Carpaccio and this Beef Negimaki, you might not be too happy with us. Lucky for the consumer, though, both…
