Passover is my Holiday
Years ago, when we first moved into our first house, I decided that Passover was our holiday. It seemed that it was enough time for me to recover from New Years (also my holiday) and a great start to what was about to be the BBQ/Grilling season (also my entire season).
Passover always seemed like a perfect start to the spring and I always loved to celebrate it with the perfect combination of fresh and bright flavors and earthy spices. A way to say good-bye to the cold and yellow to the freshness of the spring. These 15 Passover recipes are tried and true not only by me but by every one of my company chefs and many more of my clients.
These Passover recipes are so much more than JUST Passover recipes. They are recipes that you can use on any weeknight, weekend or holiday in any season. They can be dressed up for Passover or dressed down for Thursday night dinner.
