Chop and toss. That’s about it! Then, you’re ready to serve this gourmet salad that’s refreshingly different. I have one cousin in Israel that always has gourmet stuff on her table.

Move Over Beef Jerky: Cured Tuna is the New Kid in Town
So easy to make, you’ll be enjoying this fun tuna appetizer all the days of Sukkos. So here’s the back story. My sister and brother-in-law came to join us for Shabbos recently.

Begin Sukkah Soup Season with This Split Pea & Flanken Soup

The Healthy-Ish Apple Date Crumble (That Just Happens to be Gluten Free Too)
It’s still dessert, but this apple date crumble will have you feeling good as you end the meal. Salads should be healthy. Desserts, not. I’ve learned that it’s very hard to make a completely healthy dessert that’ll give you that after-the-meal satisfaction that desserts are supposed to bring (there are some rare exceptions). Rather than…
