Watermelon and Feta… Cake
Celebrate a birthday – or any special occasion – with a different kind of cake. Not everyone loves birthday cake. Is that blasphemous? For one of my kids, I try to come up with a different kind of “cake” for her birthday. Something she’ll really enjoy instead of just doing the cliched frosted cake. One…
What Shall I Serve For My Shabbos Day Meal?
If you are looking for something to brighten an otherwise ‘blah’ menu, we have just the thing. Or things. This is a guide to waking up your Shabbos day meal! For years, I was uninspired when it came to the Shabbos day meal. I felt that the menu was boring, and I came to the…
That Perfect London Broil Summer Salad
Some salads are really a complete vibrant meal. I am ready to retire. My offspring have reached that stage in life where they take my recipes and make them better. Much better. I’m not sure if it’s a thing in your house but it’s definitely a thing in my house. My cookbook is used as…
Dairy Kokosh Cake
This is the dairy, buttery, oozing with chocolate, and dense type of Kokosh Cake that we love. When I was growing up, we always made and enjoyed homemade babka or babka buns, and the recipe that my mother and siblings return to again and again is the one I published in Fresh and Easy Kosher…

Simple, Wholesome Meals for the Nine Days

Eggs In A Pita
And why you need this breakfast/brunch (or sometimes supper) idea in your life I’m not sure when I started preparing these pitas stuffed with scrambled eggs and yummy gooey cheese, but I have a feeling that they were born during the Covid lockdown. There is a very vivid recollection of my then 5-year-old son eating…
Tomato Carpaccio
Or, a fantastic way to enjoy the gorgeous heirloom tomatoes you see in the stores just about now. This is a perfect lazy summer’s Sunday brunch, or a Shalosh Seudos addition. It can even pass as a light supper idea. So what’s the best way to use heirloom tomatoes? First and foremost, what is carpaccio? And…
Fruity No Sugar Added Pre-Fast Sports Drink
Ok, so this isn’t exactly a sports drink…then you’d have all the sugars in there. It’s pretty much just a ‘doctored up’ cup of coconut water. But I couldn’t put that in the title in case you’re like me and have an aversion to plain coconut water. Now hear me out, what if I told…
