for those that use very little ingredients The simplicity of Pesach cooking always excites me. It feels really good to make food with little ingredients.

Sweet and Tangy Pastrami
With just two ingredients and a hands-off cooking method, this pastrami couldn’t be an easier main course. The total package! It’s economical as far as meat is concerned, features just two ingredients (plus the meat), and is super crowd-pleasing. I got this recipe from a friend years ago and I can’t begin to tell you…
Pessy’s 6-Ingredient Minute Steak Roast
It’s the best value in the meat showcase and will be perfectly soft and tender. Everyone has a different idea of what constitutes a perfect meat. Growing up, a successful roast had to be melt-in-your-mouth soft. Most of the time, fall off the bone, soft meats tend to be very fatty and also very expensive. …
Seder Night Flanken
Easy to prep and foolproof–you’ll love these slow-cooked strips of flanken. The first time I featured this recipe on my page, I received some feedback: “I thought you can’t cook meat in the oven for Seder night, it’s roasting, etc. I always thought you have to make everything on the stovetop”. To make sure, I…
Flanken Roast Over Potatoes
The recipe is so easy and so good, you’ll make it over and over and will never have to look back at this recipe again! For awhile, I was obsessed with preparing another recipe on Between Carpools, this 9×13: Slow Cooked Minute Steaks and Yukon Gold by Esty Wolbe. Yes, we’d change up the cut…

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…
This Gluten Free Beef Risotto Can Become Your New Cholent
Easier on the stomach even for those who don’t have a gluten free diet, this risotto still has the classic Shabbos taste! We got this recipe from our friend who got it from her friend, who got it from her friend who created it because she wanted a lighter cholent. While some of us were…

The Tried-and-True Beer-Braised BBQ Brisket
The best recipes are always the ones that came from a friend who got it from another friend. This brisket is one of those. When my friend E. told me how she makes her brisket, she couldn’t really tell me where it came from. It was one of those handwritten recipes in her notebook that…
