You can make this a salad or make it a complete meal – halloumi is just so good, it’s ready to be the star. Halloumi is so good 😉 Just so good. And it’s so much more versatile than any other cheese because you don’t have to worry about it melting. But it’s still amazing…

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…
Japanese Sweet Potato & Feta Salad
It’s simple, but all you need are these sweet potatoes as the star. I really, really enjoy Japanese sweet potatoes, more than regular potatoes, sweet potatoes, or any other type. True, they’re not in every grocery, but they’re available in enough places (I can think of three places that I often shop at that carry…
Cilantro Lime Roasted Corn & Avocado Salad
This one uses canned corn, but you’d never know. I have so many things to say about this recipe! First, I know that cilantro usually has a “Ew we don’t eat that” type of reputation in some cooking circles and I was also totally like “I’ll sub parsley or basil” (which you totally could) too…
Flavor Bomb Pesto & Chicken Caesar Salad
It’s simple but it packs in loads of flavor for a one-dish meal. At Between Carpools, we love those one dish meals that are healthy and light and do a good job pleasing at least a majority of the people. If you’re looking for salads that are a meal, we have this Ramen Crunch Salad…
Easy Summer Corn and Feta Salad
Enjoy it for Shavuos and then again and again all summer long. This fresh and bright salad will become a shalosh seudos favorite! We love corn on the cob in my house. And sometimes we buy too much of it. One Friday last summer we had a few extra ears that had to be cooked…
Lemony Lentil and Beet Salad
I’ve been a fan of this salad ever since I spotted it on someone else’s table. Many years ago, when I was a single girl in seminary, I was at Alice’s, a restaurant that used to be in Avenue U in Flatbush (no longer open), and I saw this salad come to someone’s table. It…
Feel Good Crunchy Bean Salad
The gorgeous bean salad you’ll actually love (and look forward to enjoying). To me, bean salads were always old-fashioned, cop-out, straight-from-the-can processed types of salads that I would never want to touch. Not this one. Totally not. It’s a shame that beans get neglected because they could totally be amazing and so healthy. This is…
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…
Basics: Israeli Salad
Plus! How to keep it fresh and crunchy (even when prepping on Thursday and serving on Shabbos). There are few things we never get tired of. Fresh bread, perfect spring weather, good coffee. Those are a few for me. Also, Israeli salad. Not sure what it is. Maybe the simplicity of its fresh, genuine ingredients…
