Extra challah dough? Kids can get busy making these Cinnamon Snail Rolls from “The KIDS Book of Challah.” I first introduced you to my newest book, “The KIDS Book of Challah.” last month, with two great ideas of what kids can make using challah dough. Now, this time, you’ll need to get out the mixer,…

Pizza, Cheese, or Broccoli Calzones
They’re easy to make ahead and the reward is crispy edges and cheesy, oozing filling. I don’t know why this is particularly a Syrian thing, but baby pizzas are a staple (perhaps because they’re the dairy alternative to lehme b’agine?). They’re at every formal dairy meal and break-the-fast. The mini versions are perhaps more common…
Chevy’s Pistachio Salmon
A sweet sauce, a savory crunch…it’s classic and fresh in one salmon dish. My sisters-in-law really deserve a lot of credit. Since I’ve been sharing so many recipes for years, of course I’m constantly asking them for their latest and greatest. I pick their brains and ask what they’re cooking lately. “Anything new? And can…
Rochie’s S’mores Challah
While you’re kneading your dough, get the kids involved and let them make their own challah creations from “The Kids Book of Challah.” Earlier today, I introduced you to my new book, “The Kids Book of Challah.” And while there’s a huge variety of challah-related recipes kids can make in the book, one of the…
Rochie Pinson’s Chocolate Hazelnut Twists

You’re making yet another 5 or 6 lb batch of challah. (and let’s be honest, some of those challahs from this big batch are probably going to end up…
Lemony Jalapeños
It’s not your typical dip–whether or not you like spicy things, you’ll love these jalapeños and lemon on your fish, challah, or sourdough. So, this was totally unexpected. This recipe came from my friend Malky Blum–and I don’t know if you so much call it a recipe, or just an amazing combination… so amazing, that…
Creamy Butternut & Lentil Soup
Add some protein to your butternut squash soup…you might like this version more than the veggie-only version. How many years have you been making the same butternut squash soup? Forever? It’s simple, everyone likes it, and if you’re buying precut butternut squash (is that the vegetable that virtually everyone buys precut?) it’s really quick to…
The Best Classic Rugelach: Cocoa or Vanilla Flavors
You always wanted to have a go-to rugelach recipe. Whether you love the chocolate or vanilla versions, your rugelach will now finally be coming out of your own oven. (Perfect for break-the-fast!)

How to Make Easy Home Fries
Have them for breakfast. Or lunch. Or your side dish for dinner. They’re easy enough to make anytime, all Pesach long. Every Chol Hamoed morning our day starts with eggs, matzah, avocado, cream cheese, butter – and lots and lots of home fries. Honestly, I don’t even have to make them anymore. The kids are…
The 9×13 Life: Brownies For Those Who Love Anything Chocolate Mint
These gooey brownies are made perfect with just the right amount of mint flavor! It’s become a comical cliche that online recipes all start with a long-winded story before getting down to the actual recipe. But for this recipe, there’s a story really worth telling. Kids of Courage is an organization that provides adventure experiences…
