A good deviled egg recipe is a holy grail appetizer! A creamy, tangy, indulgent deviled egg is the perfect spring delight not to mention a delightful Easter pre-dinner nosh! As much as I love deviled eggs, I like a bit more texture in my food. Many deviled egg recipes are all mush. Though delicious, I…
The Perfect Passover Seder Dinner with Crispy Potatoes + Roasted Brussel Sprouts
We talked about what is on a seder plate earlier this week, now it’s time to chat about the whole seder table. The seder table is the literal table around which your seder takes place and there are certain essential elements as well as some delicious, optional components. The Food Artist and I are happy…
Not Your Bubbe’s Charoset Made with White Wine
One of my absolute favorite recipes during passover happens to be Charoset. Charoset is typically a mixture of apples, cinnamon, walnuts and a ton of manischewitz wine, but most of the time it’s mushy, sticky and overly sweet in my opinion. This sweet paste is symbolic during passover because it is meant to remind people…
Vibrant Natural Tea Dyed Easter Eggs! – SO EASY!
I love using natural materials to dye eggs. I’ve had great success with foods like cabbage, blueberries, and turmeric. Check out my food dyed Easter eggs post if you’d like to go that route. It’s a fun project, but dying eggs with fresh food requires simmering the food to make the dye. It also involves…
Slow Cooker Tomato Braised Brisket
A tender, melt-in-your-mouth brisket is a beautiful thing. Classy enough for a holiday (like Passover), yet simple enough for any night’s dinner. When you add the ease of the slow cooker to the equation life couldn’t get much better. The only hard part of it all is having to smell this amazingness hours before you…
Instant Pot Easter Spiral Ham with Spiced Dry Rub
I’m always making the spiral ham for holidays. I’m not much of a turkey lover (seriously, search “turkey” on this blog and see what you get. Nada), so I bring the big ol’ ham to every holiday gathering. The challenge with baking a ham for the holidays is that it needs to heat low and…
Gorgeous Modern Seder Plate of Tolerance
Adapted by Skylar Edberg from Dummies.com Almost every Passover seder includes various symbolic foods and other items. Nothing on the seder table is selected randomly and each item has its purpose and often has a specific place on the table or seder plate. Just because the seder traditionally uses certain ritual foods, doesn’t mean you…
Green Shakshuka – (Gluten-Free, Whole30, Paleo, Keto)
I love Shashuka of all kinds! Long ago I posted a tomato-based non-traditional vegetable based shakshuka and I still love that recipe to this day! This green shakshuka is fantastic in a totally different way. It’s incredible how you can sauté pretty much any vegetable with a little liquid, crack an egg over it and…
Strawberry Sunrise Breakfast Bars
I don’t know about you, but I’m an actual disaster in the morning. I’ve never met anyone who wakes up slower than I do. Probably because I’m a morning mess, I naturally have the most chipper, dare I say hyper, morning child on the planet. Who wakes up that happy and energetic?! It’s like crime…

She has a great trick for the simplest, quickest way ever to cook and prepare spaghetti squash (you’ll find it in the recipe below;). Now I’m…
