Enjoy it as a cereal with milk, or as an add-in to your yogurt. This is one granola that appeals to those who like wholesome foods and those who like sweet things alike. When I brought this granola to a Between Carpools photoshoot one day, I didn’t realize that it would become a favorite that…

It’s Hot, Cold, Creamy, and Crispy: Waffles with White Chocolate Mousse
This perfect dairy waffles dessert is also easy to prepare! That’s because we’re beginning with Yitzy’s Pancake Batter. I don’t like fussing with desserts, but I still need to prepare them.

The Perfect Make Ahead Roasted Veggie Salad
The work is already done – just toss and serve this Roasted Veggie Salad. For a while, this roasted veggie salad has been my go-to for Yom Tov meals (minus the feta). It solves two problems.
