So, I have decided to put some recipes here that are really dear to me as they are easy, healthy and work really great for Shabbat. The pictures for this post are made by a talented friend of mine, Lel. Brussels sprouts are such a versatile vegetable! You can have it in a salad, in…

My Dairy Shabbat Pasta
Staying home on Friday night (no complaint here, so tired by the end of the week, I prefer to stay home on Shabbat night until the time changes) I am always looking for a quick, easy, one dish Shabbat dinner that is still nice. On top of this, I LOVE pasta! All this gluten-free stuff…
Quick and Easy Fish & Potatoes
My friends sometimes ask me for quick, easy, but satisfying recipes, especially those who decided to embrace the path of healthy living laid out for them by Dr.Nehama Milson. I love to improvise the answers in my kitchen and share them with the world. One of the only four things that I’ve made this Shabbat is this…
Learning from my Daughters
When does a parent rejoice? When their children surpass their own abilities. As a mother, I know that there is nothing greater than understanding that some things you taught your children have been internalized and improved upon by them. I have two beautiful grown-up, and very much self-made daughters. Both of them saw me cooking and…
Vegetarian One-Pot Shabbat Dinner
So, apparently, it is very easy to make a delicious vegetarian one-pot (or pan?) Shabbat dinner.

Summer String Beans
Today is three months since we lost my father. How is it that when your parents age, you realize how much more you should have done? I’ve spent two weeks in beautiful Israel doing what I love – studying Torah – thinking how is it that I’ve never come with my dad. I “sent” him…
Easy, Fast, Vegan, Healthy, Delicious
This was a healthy Shabbat. I made a few salads, a peach crumb for dessert – a perfect way to eat late at night. One of my favorites is to use lots of greens, so this time since I got some really great fresh basil, I decided to experiment with one of my favorite summer salad…
In the Autumn Mood
Autumn, fall, osenj – however, you name it, the meaning for me is the same – beauty of colors, crying skies, the imminence of the coming winter. Every fall I start physically feeling worse from the day temperature drops so that I need a jacket to wear. Cold. I stay cold until the first tiny green baby…
