These Beef Negimaki are the perfect portions of tender, juicy steak. First off, we apologize to the butchers this season for featuring two recipes that entail some extra labor. Between the prep required for the Beef Carpaccio and this Beef Negimaki, you might not be too happy with us. Lucky for the consumer, though, both…
Shabbos & Yom Tov
Overnight Potato Kugel: So Delicious, and Now Presentable Too!
Because we finally figured out how to serve it without it looking like a sloppy mess. Did you ever wonder how to serve an overnight potato kugel without losing your Hungarian balebusta reputation? Ok fine, let’s not exaggerate. But also, these things really matter to me. I will not cook or serve something that isn’t…
Leftover Babka? Make Babka Ice Cream
What do you do with all the babka you receive on Purim, or just which what was leftover from the previous Shabbos? It becomes the next great dessert. There have been other babka-inspired desserts here on Between Carpools. In the past, we’ve shown you how to make Babka Spring Rolls. Come Chanukah, these easy Babka…
The Best Meat Pizza with Pastrami and Facon
What could be better? Not much. Yes, we know. There is a meat pizza recipe in Dinner Done, but, full disclosure, this one is better. What can we say, some recipes showed up after Dinner Done went to print, you know? So, why is this one so much better? Honestly, we are not quite sure…
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…
How to Make Chocolate Magic Shell
I upgraded my Original Hot Fudge and now make a new version with a nuttier, healthier twist. Back in 2019 we wrote a series of posts on freezing. We each wrote what we like to keep in our freezer (or at least, try!) and looking back, these posts are still very relevant. Esti taught me…
How to Make an Avocado Board (Perfect for Shalosh Seudos)
It’s easier than you think to create this gorgeous avocado platter to bring to the table. Serve it for Seudah Shelishit! A couple of years ago, I shared with you the backstory of this Avocado Toast Bar. There was one Shabbat when I was inspired to make Seudah Shelishit something enjoyable and beautiful–there should be…
Corn Riblets
You can make them at home. And, surprise, they taste even better than in any restaurant. I went to my WhatsApp history and actually looked this up, because it was kind of important for me to know, and yes, already back in the beginning of 2022 we wrote a corn riblets recipe. No, you never…
Outrageous Tropical Fruit Salad
You can make this one year round with fruits that you find at your corner grocery (and the freezer aisle!) I used to make a version of this salad years ago. It was my signature dish, and the funny part is, there is no cooking involved. Somehow, my guest always knew that there was a…
The 9×13 Life: Chicken and Eggplant
Surprisingly easy, and jam packed with flavor. This is a dinner that you will find yourself preparing time and again. It’s easy to pull together, light and delicious. Don’t you love when the side dish is right there with your main, cooking in the same pan? Here you have it, and this time, it’s not…
