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…

Kosher KopyKat: Famous Cilantro-Lime Dressing
A dressing so good, you can eat it plain with a spoon. I first learned about this famous dressing one weekday afternoon. It was towards the end of vacation, and I had ordered a salad at a popular little health food spot in Surfside, Florida. The dressing was served in little condiment containers on the…
Daniella’s Panko-Topped Kale Salad from Best of Kosher
This salad by Daniella Silver in Best of Kosher is one of our favorites… some of us are just addicted. While we were working on Best of Kosher, we thought that we would find that we were already familiar with all the “favorites!” After all, we’re food writers. We should know about all the famous…
Ramen Crunch Salad with Turkey
It’s the salad that kids and adults both love. My kids are obsessed with Ramen Noodles. If it was up to them they would eat these noodles every single day for breakfast, lunch and supper. However, since they have a mom, their life isn’t that much fun. When it comes to Shabbos and Yom Tov,…
Rainbow Quinoa Salad
This is my go to salad to send over to anyone hosting – as it’s so pretty and can easily be prepared in advance. Full of bright and nourishing veggies, this salad is bursting with a rainbow of colors – it makes the perfect edible centerpiece for Shalosh Seudos! I love that it can be…

Don’t Put Away That Leftover Corn On the Cob Yet
If you do it the right way, there’s a better chance it will get eaten. You know how sometimes you can buy super fresh corn on the cob for a great price? You get caught up in the farmers market vibe and put 10 ears in your bag. Or you buy that pack of 8…
How to Make Yussi Weisz’s Coleslaw
It’s worth making from scratch: real, fresh shredded cabbage is nothing like its bagged sibling. I used to buy my coleslaw, every week, at Yussi’s Deli on Second Street. It was my favorite coleslaw. Then, Yussi opened his popular Snaps restaurant (read more about Yussi and see another recipe over here) and the ownership of the…
Sina’s Simple But Amazing Roasted Bell Pepper Arugula Salad
I make a variation of this salad weekly, but this time I added roasted bell pepper and let me tell you, it takes it up a notch. The slight smoky char adds a perfect depth against the freshness of the vegetables. Feel free to play around with whatever vegetables you have. Want to know which…
Fill Your Fridge with Quick Pickles for Pesach Snacking
If you miss your savory snacks on Pesach, these pickles are an easy crunchy alternative to yet another bag of potato chips. Salty wins over sweet in my house – except maybe when it comes to chocolate. So last Pesach I decided to experiment with making some pickles for everyone to snack on instead of…
