Lamb riblets aren’t nearly as expensive as baby lamb–but they can taste just as good if you know how to prepare them right. The first time I prepared lamb riblets, they were verifiably, a flop. I didn’t realize just how low and slow they needed to go. They were hard, and, covered by a layer…

Roasted Veggie Turbot Over Sweet Potatoes
This beautiful fish dish is fitting for Yom Tov–but it’s also a complete meal for any day of the week. The truth is, I originally made this because I hadn’t planned what to make. I had picked up some fish–but hadn’t decided on a recipe. Time was short. Dinner had to be served. I sliced…
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…
Flanken Roast with Shallot Sauce
I’ve been making this version of Flanken Roast for almost nine years(!) and everyone still loves it. And–it happens to be absolutely perfect for Yom Tov too. Editor’s Note: While Flanken Roasts have become a super popular cut of meat, we realized that there weren’t many recipes featuring it on BCP. We have this BBQ/ketchup…
Pretzel Hot Dogs
Dinner can be a family activity. These are so delicious, and your whole family will love them. From young to old. This recipe is the perfect activity that ends up as a fun snack or dinner. Rolling the dough over the hot dogs is reminiscent of challah braiding but way easier for small hands to…
Skirt Steak Wraps with Guacamole
These skirt steak wraps are the dinner that tastes of summer. It’s summer. You crave a good, satisfying dinner that is light and vibrant. You also don’t want to spend too much time prepping that dinner. We have just the thing. These wraps come together quickly and the flavor is so perfect. The nice thing here is…
Basics: Mac and Cheese
It really never gets old. Ever. We are definitely a noodle family. While my boys have outgrown the “pasta and only pasta” stage, they still don’t mind a fresh bowl of something cheesy and hot. The girls, however, still celebrate when pasta is on the menu and greatly prefer it over anything else. There are…
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,…
How to Make Easy Home Fries
Have them for breakfast. Or lunch. Or your side dish for dinner. They’re easy enough to make anytime, all Pesach long. Every Chol Hamoed morning our day starts with eggs, matzah, avocado, cream cheese, butter – and lots and lots of home fries. Honestly, I don’t even have to make them anymore. The kids are…
Simple but Amazing: Slow Roasted Onion Chicken
Use the same recipe for any roast! This Onion Chicken (or Roast) is as simple and easy as can be. My kids call this “Bobby’s Chicken”–and there’s always a pan keeping warm in the oven on long summer Friday afternoons for Toameha. And even though it’s “Bobby’s Chicken” you’ll find some unrelated little kid’s in…
