This week’s Torah portion begins with our Matriarch Sarah’s death and Avraham’s purchase of the Machpelah Cave in Hebron as a family burial plot. (Chaiye Sarah Gen: 23) The Torah goes into great detail about the negotiations between Avraham and Ephron who was the owner of the field and the […]
I LOVE FALAFEL. It’s my comfort food and Israel’s National Sandwich. I must have been feeling nostalgic today as I had a craving for this favorite dish. Ingredients: 3 cups of pre-soaked chickpeas ¾ cup of flour 1 cup water 2 teaspoons soda water (club soda) 3 cloves of garlic […]
We are always looking for creative ways to cut back on meat and poultry in our menu. Recently we’ve been sprouting lentils and beans and we have a lot of varieties of dried legumes in our pantry. But sometimes a plate full of vegetables just doesn’t do it, so we […]
The ‘best’ lasagna recipes combine layers of meat sauce, pasta and cheese. This presents a problem for people who are trying to keep Kosher. We don’t mix dairy products and meat products in one recipe. We’ve already shared a version of lasagna that uses vegan “meat” and vegan “cheese.” We […]

We love our salads and appetizers for our Friday night dinners and Shabbat Lunches. We have our staples, (like Moroccan Carrots, Grilled Eggplant, Hummus and Tehina) but this one has become our new favorite. It’s rich and creamy. The texture and flavor is great on pita, challah or crackers. Some […]
I found these adorable baby eggplants at the supermarket. I just knew that they would be perfect for roasting with other yummy vegetables. There was no need to treat them with salt to remove the natural bitterness found in a larger eggplant as I normally do. Just as I thought, […]
Until we started Galilee Green, I had never used olive oil in my meat prep. But when I did for the first time, the Galilee Green olive oil added a layer of flavor that I’m positively delighted with. And it happened by accident! At the beginning of each week, I […]
