Homemade Pesach Ketchup
This Pesach ketchup is a key ingredient in the Miriam’s General Tso Chicken from her new book Real Life Pesach Cooking. If you use bottled ketchup, go ahead and take advantage of the convenience. If you don’t, however, this is a fabulous solution! Miriam says, “This ketchup recipe was originally created by my friend and…
Crunchy Chicken Lettuce Wraps
They’re fun, crunchy, healthy, and super kid-friendly too. These Crunchy Chicken Lettuce Wraps are a win-win for dinner. With many of the recipes I write, I try to keep in mind the pickiest eater I know…that includes those who won’t eat vegetables or taste new ingredients. I also think about those who only stock basic…
Outrageous Tropical Fruit Salad
You can make this one year round with fruits that you find at your corner grocery (and the freezer aisle!) I used to make a version of this salad years ago. It was my signature dish, and the funny part is, there is no cooking involved. Somehow, my guest always knew that there was a…
One-Pan Potatoes and Drumettes
Chicken and potatoes are always a safe choice when it comes to dinner, but why should it be boring? This fun and super flavorful take on a classic dinner will knock your socks off! Editor’s Note: We knew this recipe from Vera Newman’s latest cookbook, Marblespoon at Home, would be right up your alley. Read…
The 9×13 Life: Chicken and Eggplant
Surprisingly easy, and jam packed with flavor. This is a dinner that you will find yourself preparing time and again. It’s easy to pull together, light and delicious. Don’t you love when the side dish is right there with your main, cooking in the same pan? Here you have it, and this time, it’s not…
Hearty and Comforting Chunky Butternut Tomato Soup
There’s no blending and minimal chopping in this soup that both warms and fills you up. This is exactly the chunky hearty soup that you want to make on a chilly day. It checks the boxes for me and is totally suitable as a meal too. And–it rewarms well too. You might just need to…
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…
Chaya’s Chatzilim
There is nothing better than chatzilim with challah. Or sourdough. Ever since I bought my first Fresh and Easy cookbook, this is the recipe that I would prepare again and again without fail. How funny is that? Even the obsessive baking of Everything But The Kitchen Sink Cookies came later on. At that point, I…
Sushi Cups
The absolute easiest way to serve sushi – and no one is tired of them yet. When I first featured this recipe years ago, sushi was a new thing. I remember serving it at an upsherin and it was so “new” and “cool.” But, guess what? Sushi’s popularity never went away. And these little Sushi…
