Challah ( makes 4 round loaves or 3 twisted loaves) Updated Sept/18
I’m sure there as many recipes for Challah as there are stars in the sky..well, maybe not quite but really, there are a lot of recipes. And..most people feel that their recipe is the best… and I am sure they are! This recipe is the one I use to make round Challah for Rosh Hashanah……
Chicken Soup in the Instant Pot
Well, I decided to make a chicken soup in the Instant Pot. Usually I cook my soup for hours & hours on the stove & then some more! Lots of skimming & skimming…this is how my grandmother made her chicken soup & my mom & my sisters… but I have found a new way for…
Gefilte Fish in the Instant Pot
UPDATED FEB/23 I have been making gefilte fish from scratch for years, but only make it twice a year. Rarely do I buy the pre-made frozen logs, though I like to have one on hand in the freezer “just In case”. I found out, from a fellow Instant Pot user…Lawrence J LeVine, that the frozen log…

Sweet and Sour Meatballs from The Nosher
I love recipes on The Nosher. So when I want to try one I am never worried about being disappointed. I wasn’t this time either. A few weeks ago they posted a recipe for Sweet and Sour meatballs served with spaghetti squash. I did the same. I must admit that I like spaghetti better than…
Honey Cookies
I saw this recipe for Honey Cookies on Facebook maybe a couple of years ago. They are sweet, coated with sugar which makes them crunchy on the outside, chewy inside & just plain delicious The recipe is by Lil’Miss Cakes. This recipe uses common ingredients that you most likely already have at home. The only…
Mom’s Apple Cake
