They’re the Yom Tov dishes we make the most often. And they all can be made and frozen right now.

Now that the kids are off, I’m ready to make my Yom Tov menu. And while there’s plenty of work to catch up on, at least there’s a good shot that we can actually get some things into the freezer ahead of time this year.

If you’ve already gotten a head start, I hope you’ve started to make use of our new-and-totally-user-friendly recipe index. It’s now so easy to narrow down and find just the recipe that you’re looking for. You can even search only items that are freezer-friendly. Or, you can search all the meats. Or, search for a new gorgeous salad. Or all of our fish. (If you want to pick two categories at once and search for all salads with meat, you can do that too!)

But if you’re just starting to think of a menu like we are, then these top 10 classics are the place to start. They are the dishes that we make THE most often for Yom Tov, the ones that we are constantly going back to the BCP App to look up, and the ones that are most definitely going to be the first to take up real estate in our freezers. They’re all can’t lose, always-amazing classics that you can make right now and cross off the list.
