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…

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…
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…
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…
Green Bean, Tomato and Feta Cheese Salad
This Green Bean Salad is exactly what you want to eat this summer. One morning last Shavuos, I found myself with a package of trimmed green beans and no red onions. I really meant to prepare the Green Bean Salad from Dinner Done (page 258 if you are curious). It was even on my menu,…
Grain-Free Pesach Granola

The following year we review…
Hamantaschen Pizza Bourekas
Keep these Hamantaschen simple with sauce and cheese, or fill up wheat tortillas (wraps) with any of your favorite fillings. Comes Chodesh Adar (and this year, come Purim Katan) and we try to bring in the spirit of Purim into the house. What says Purim more than Hamentashen? Hamentschen. Yes, you can make classic Hamantaschen….
Halloumi Eggplant Salad
You can make this a salad or make it a complete meal – halloumi is just so good, it’s ready to be the star. Halloumi is so good 😉 Just so good. And it’s so much more versatile than any other cheese because you don’t have to worry about it melting. But it’s still amazing…
How to Make an Avocado Board (Perfect for Shalosh Seudos)
It’s easier than you think to create this gorgeous avocado platter to bring to the table. Serve it for Seudah Shelishit! A couple of years ago, I shared with you the backstory of this Avocado Toast Bar. There was one Shabbat when I was inspired to make Seudah Shelishit something enjoyable and beautiful–there should be…
Fun Crunchy Sesame Cucumbers
Everyone will eat these up because they’re so good (and they must be healthy because, after all, they’re cucumbers, right?). But they’re totally not. Anyways, it’s Chanukah, when everything has a little oil. So, people come to your Chanukah party, and they’re on a diet so they don’t eat the donuts. Instead, they eat the…
