These rolls are as fun to make as they are to eat—and they look beautiful on a plate. You can customize them a million ways (think shredded chicken, tofu, mango…). Call them summer rolls, Vietnamese spring rolls or salad rolls – either way they’re light, they’re fresh, and they make a gorgeous appetizer. Or a…

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…
Bulgur Nectarine Salad with Feta
It’s a refreshing and inviting salad featuring the best of summer with fresh, sweet nectarines, warm bulgur, and feta…and you can serve it in a bowl, or even better, beautifully displayed on a platter. Editor’s Note: Renee Muller came across this salad, prepared by Ruchy Frankel, when she traveled to London for her niece’s wedding….
Eggs In A Pita
And why you need this breakfast/brunch (or sometimes supper) idea in your life I’m not sure when I started preparing these pitas stuffed with scrambled eggs and yummy gooey cheese, but I have a feeling that they were born during the Covid lockdown. There is a very vivid recollection of my then 5-year-old son eating…
Tomato Carpaccio
Or, a fantastic way to enjoy the gorgeous heirloom tomatoes you see in the stores just about now. This is a perfect lazy summer’s Sunday brunch, or a Shalosh Seudos addition. It can even pass as a light supper idea. So what’s the best way to use heirloom tomatoes? First and foremost, what is carpaccio? And…
Beet and Chickpea Salad
Just toss it all together (the fresh dill and parsley are a must!) and you have an amazing, nourishing, and filling salad that’s refreshingly different. I do like randomly trying new things–but often, it’s just one and done. The experiments are just to enjoy for the moment, but rarely on repeat (although when they are…
Green Bean, Tomato and Feta Cheese Salad
This Green Bean Salad is exactly what you want to eat this summer. One morning last Shavuos, I found myself with a package of trimmed green beans and no red onions. I really meant to prepare the Green Bean Salad from Dinner Done (page 258 if you are curious). It was even on my menu,…
Hamantaschen Pizza Bourekas
Keep these Hamantaschen simple with sauce and cheese, or fill up wheat tortillas (wraps) with any of your favorite fillings. Comes Chodesh Adar (and this year, come Purim Katan) and we try to bring in the spirit of Purim into the house. What says Purim more than Hamentashen? Hamentschen. Yes, you can make classic Hamantaschen….
