The 9×13 Life: Garlic Confit And Blistered Tomato Rice
Also known as, the dangerous rice that you can eat all in one sitting. We have baked rice in a 9×13 before and we are ready to do it again. This recipe, though, is very different. More 2023 if you will. Sometimes, the side dish is the star of the show. You know? This baked…
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…
Freezer-Friendly and Delicious Japanese Noodles
This side dish can be prepared in advance and frozen, and nobody will know. It’s delicious Japanese noodles that taste just as good fresh and they do when they’re rewarmed. Sometimes you just want to cook up one big recipe (maybe even double it), freeze it, and know that it’s done. We do that often with…
Kosher Kopykat: Turkey-Wrapped Dates
You may have tried these meat-filled and wrapped dates in a restaurant and thought: this is really gourmet. But perhaps you didn’t imagine just how easy peasy they are to recreate.

We’ve been bitten by the Betty Crocker pizza maker bug and love sharing our Betty Crocker “recipes” (recipes in quotes because you don’t really need a recipe for most of the Betty Crocker cooking. Let’s start with the basics. The Betty Crocker pizza maker (or just…
Vera’s Moroccan Jeweled Couscous
This side dish is a taste experience–but it’s still easy to prepare! I personally love a good easy side dish. But sometimes, for Yom Tov, I like to throw in a little something special to elevate our meal. I don’t necessarily find that I need to compromise and patchke in order to put a beautiful,…
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…
Betty Crocker French Fries and Chickpeas
Throw this side dish into the Betty Crocker for an easy, filling family-friendly side or meal. Since our first Betty Crocker Pizza Maker post was published, we’ve been hooked. We’ve used it for travel, made salmon, cooked pasta, home fries, eggs and pancakes. Whatever you can make in the oven or on the stove, you can also make in your Betty Crocker. Talk about…
