Teriyaki Portobello Salad with Spiralized Carrots and Beets
This is a beautiful, new salad with the perfect amount of umami and crunch. When Renee Muller started writing a column for Ami Magazine she asked me for advice. I told her no one will invite you for meals anymore. And so it came to be. (No worries, I invite her!) In my case, my sister-in-law…
Roasted Chickpeas
Elevate your hummus/chummus plate (or how to keep it simple!) with roasted chickpeas. Chummus plates are a great item to serve as an appetizer, or on the table alongside the appetizer. Dressing up the traditional chummus plate is a great idea as well. Read our post on how to plate your hummus (+ 2 more…
The 9×13 Life: Sushi Rice in the Oven
Great rice; no sticky pot to deal with at the end. Sure, sushi is a fun meal that tends to please everyone (make some rice, choose your fillings). It’s useful in lots of recipes besides for sushi too. Some favorites include this Sushi Salad, or the kid-friendly favorite Avocado Crunch Sushi Roll from Dinner Done….
Caramel Date Truffles
Three ingredients. Beyond easy. Beyond yum. And so feel-good! I first served this on Pesach, but they became such a favorite that I now make them all year round – they’re really amazing, special, and the perfect thing to keep in the freezer to bring out for dessert. I love that they’re not junky –…

The 9×13 Life: Garlic Confit And Blistered Tomato Rice
Also known as, the dangerous rice that you can eat all in one sitting. We have baked rice in a 9×13 before and we are ready to do it again. This recipe, though, is very different. More 2023 if you will. Sometimes, the side dish is the star of the show. You know? This baked…
Roasted Veggie Chummus Platter
It’s the most gorgeous of appetizers and an absolute party in a platter. “Victoria, Shana our bookkeeper said she made the Chummus Platter from Leah Nagel of Truffles and Trends and she said it’s amazing. It’s very much your type. Do you want to try it?” Absolutely, I did. I had worked with Leah Nagel…
Sushi Donuts
Make it a fun family activity, a special Chanukah dinner, or even a Chanukah party program…whichever way you go, you are guaranteed a delicious experience. By now, you have probably seen sushi donuts sold in many sushi restaurants or take outs, especially this time of year. They look very pretty and hard to do. But,…
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…
