I’d wanted to make fish tacos for a long time and I got me some hard shell corn tacos for the purpose and just didn’t get around to it. Then I found some fabulous avocado (gotta have the avocado for this) and decided to skip any shredded lettuce or slaw to make it easier to […]
Let me preface this post by saying this is one of the most delicious homemade ice creams I’ve eaten, full stop. I was scrolling merrily through the various and sundry posts pre Passover on different foodie groups I belong to and espied this recipe posted by Estee from one of the groups (I cannot remember […]
While I’m a big fan of moussaka, I find it’s somewhat messy to serve especially if you’ve got a lot of company. I decided to make these nice little bundles to make them easier to remove from the pan and serve, not to mention they have great eye appeal. You do NOT fry the eggplant […]
As I believe I’ve mentioned, oh so many times, I have a niece, nephew and now a granddaughter, my Noa, who have celiac and I work on recipes for them. Since Noa is fairly new to the game and it’s not always easy for her, I try to think of things she might feel deprived […]

As I’ve often mentioned, I like to experiment and develop recipes and this one was born from just not being in the mood to make pie. I had purchased the jarred sour cherries in syrup with that intention, but just didn’t wanna. Ever get that feeling? So each time I opened the pantry door, there […]
This is a recipe I deconstructed from a stay we had at Kibbutz Lavi about a year ago, where we go fairly often with our kids and grandkids. They have gone somewhat more upscale in their food and served this as part of the meal on Shabbat and the combo of crispy pastry, portobello mushrooms […]
