I love to make quick, tasty and healthy dinners. Our food has become extra tasty since We started cooking with Galilee Green Olive Oil. Whether it’s stir frying vegetables or marinating and grilling chicken… everything tastes better! As a side dish, I chose to quickly cook up some sweet potatoes […]
When it’s cold in the winter I am usually in the mood for something warm and filling but not too heavy. Soup! Needless to say my fridge and pantry needed restocking immediately but I had to put together something to eat before I went to the grocery store. I found […]
I’m always looking for creative ways to use leftovers. It usually involves opening the fridge to take stock of what’s left from our Shabbat meals. This past Shabbat we went to our son and daughter-in-law’s so I didn’t have any leftovers! But I found 2 salmon fillets from Thursday dinner […]

What I call a “Mount Tabor Bowl” (otherwise known as the Buddha Bowl or Hippie Bowl) is a creative way of eating a full meal in one personal sized serving dish. The idea is to pack a whole bunch of great food stuff on top of more great food stuff […]
Shabbat lunch at our home during cold winter days often includes Cholent. Cholent is the Yiddish word for a traditional Jewish stew prepared on Friday. It is usually simmered overnight for 12 hours or more, and eaten for lunch on Shabbat. Most people make cholent with potatoes, barley, beans and […]
