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…
Chummus Ganoush
Get more flavor for less work! Make and serve two dips at once with this Hummus Ganuosh. In our Condiments & Dips section, you’ll find plenty of options to pair with your challah or sourdough. Somehow, this has turned into an entire course on its own! Browse all our dips here! My personal go-to dips…
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…
The 9×13 Life: Classic Chicken with Rice
Dinner doesn’t get easier, and tastier (!) than this. This is the chicken and rice dinner you will make on repeat. And repeat again. And, bonus, it takes about 5 minutes to prepare (although you will need ample oven time, so plan accordingly!). If you are looking for a basic dinner that is delicious and…
Mushroom Braised Chicken
This dish looks and tastes so upscale, yet the ingredients are approachable and simple. As the chicken cooks slowly in a mushroom sauce, amazing flavors develop! We are always on the lookout for different ways to serve chicken, especially ways that are a bit more…elegant. So when Fraidy told us about this recipe that has…
Bruschetta With Cheese
These gorgeous bruschetta are the perfect dairy item for your party. They look beautiful, they’re delicious, and yes, they’re actually easy to prep. (You can do it!) I first served these bruschetta this past Shavuot. I wanted something new, special, and beautiful, with fresh new flavors. I had made three variations–this pear flavor (my personal…
The Best Crispy Onion Strings
Easy to make and full of flavor. These have stood the test of time and are certainly the best Crispy Honey Mustard Onion Strings. I usually avoid writing recipes that are called “the best.” The reason for it is very simple. In 2 years from now, I might create a better version and I’ll have…
