No more soggy matzah pizza this Pesach! We love matzah pizza in our house. (I think I do more than the kids!) It’s such a simple chol hamoed meal without too much work. In the past, we used marinara sauce. But the Pesach versions tend to be more watery than the all-year-round version so I’d…

9×13 Mashed Sweet Potatoes
When you can get results like this without a pot, why not? Make soft, roasted, deliciously caramelized mashed sweet potatoes in your 9×13 pan. The BCP 9×13 Mashed Cauliflower has been a favorite in our kitchen for years. The 9×13 method takes a bit of time, but the result is always worth it—a rich, flavorful,…
Basics: Simple Syrup
The liquified version of sugar is super easy to make and comes in handy in so many recipes. We use simple syrup in a lot of recipes, especially over Pesach. If it’s not something you’re accustomed to making, no worries, simple syrup is, as the name suggests…completely simple. Making simple syrup simply involves boiling sugar…
Nina’s Pesach Cookies
These cookies are the first thing you should bake for Pesach This is the cookie that I look forward to on Pesach each year. It’s absolutely perfect and not in any way “Pesachdig” tasting. It’s crispy, delicious, and tastes like coconut and almonds, the perfect addition to your coffee (or tea) break. We have been…
Rocky Road Marshmallow Pesach Brownies
We used Lieber’s cocoa and chocolate chips (the best, for real!) to make these extra special gluten free brownie bars that are so special, they work as a complete dessert. Last year, we set about making our Pesach menus, full of BCP tried-and-true favorites. But then we realized–that might be easy now, but then what…
Pesach Barbecue Sauce
Make a double (or triple) batch and use this BBQ sauce over and over again this Passover. There was one Pesach where I resolved: I am no longer going to experiment with meats for Pesach. The most popular main I made each year was simply whatever type of meat I served with this sauce. There’s…
Kosher KopyKat: Pea Shoot Salad
With refreshing pea shoots and candied Facon, this fresh and different salad, inspired by the dish at Fireside Restaurant, is surprisingly super easy to pull together. Both my cousin and my daughter shared this recipe with me–their sister-in-law had made it, inspired by the popular salad served at Fireside in Monsey. When two people think…

Kosher Kopycat: Tuna Carpaccio
A refreshing and surprisingly different way to serve your tuna crudo. At our house, the girls have a bit of an obsession with raw fish. The boys at the table have learned to look the other way and stick to their chummus with garlic confit and sourdough, while the girls polish off another form of…
Best Ever Date Bark
It’s a surprisingly satisfying and healthyish treat Do you love a good candy bar? My favorite is a Smirk bar (the kosher version of Snicker’s) but, whenever I indulge in one, I get that sugar high that leaves me feeling kind of “eh” after. Then my daughter showed me this fun date bark idea, and…
