Happy Passover, Happy Easter & Happy Spring Break!

Whatever Spring holiday you are celebrating, here are some easy and HEALTHIER recipe and menu ideas!

This Passover Seder menu will WOW your guests. Plus I included a Passover lunch treat – my cauliflower pizza recipe (I personally can’t stand matzah pizza so… you’re welcome!)! I also added a snack because… I LOVE to snack! (it’s in my genes… I swear). 🙂 I also added a new recipe … chocolate dipped macaroons!

I also have a complete Easter menu that includes a new SPRING appetizer recipe, plus starter, main and dessertS – yes of course I included more than ONE!!! 🙂

I’m excited to try some new recipes this year myself (so stay tuned for that) but in the meantime… I hope you find this helpful and if you make anything please comment so I know! I hope you enjoy them all! 🙂

Happy SPRING Holidays to you!

Passover Seder Menu

— Starter —

Roasted Creamy Cauliflower & Truffle Soup

One of my favorite soups is kosher for Passover! Try something different this year and make this!

— Main —

Veggie Loaf

I love this dish as a Friday night Shabbat dinner entree but have used it for holidays too! It’s ALWAYS a crowd pleaser!

— Dessert —

Meringue Cookies

I made a cooking video showing my classic Meringue recipe, but if you really want to kick it up a notch, try my Lemon Meringue recipe with Young Living essential oils!

Chocolate dipped Macaroons

I made this for the first time last year. The husband and toddler ate them all. The ingredients are by far SO much better for you than the packaged kind!

— Lunch (the next day) —

Cauliflower Crust Pizza w/ Caramelized Onions, Kale & Vegan Mozzarella

Who doesn’t love pizza? Well, move over Matzoh Pizza! my Cauliflower Pizza with Cashew cheese is an excellent Passover-friendly option! Just don’t forget to look for a no-sugar-added pasta sauce!

— Snack —

Apricot Coconut Balls

Snacks are key when you have kids or are in my family. 🙂 Try popping these fiber, protein, naturally sweetened goodies when you get a case of the munchies!

Easter Menu

— Appetizer —

Mint Pea Puree Hors d’Oeuvres

This is a classic recipe of mine, in my cookbook but first time on the blog! A perfect spring time appetizer that works well for any gathering!

— Starter —

French Onion Soup

French Onion Soup. Did I have you at French? Onion? or Soup? 🙂 Really this soup is AMAZING! One of my favorites.

— Main —

Lemon Thyme Tempeh Piccata

The lemon and thyme work together to make a super flavorful dish that’s sure to impress!

— Dessert —

Lemon Bars

The bright color and flavor of these lemon bars go perfectly with the colors of Easter!

Bunny Cupcakes

Bunny Cupcakes would be another fun thematic desert to try!

Carrot Cake with Cream ‘Cheese’ Frosting

What dessert would the Easter Bunny love more than anything else? Carrot Cake I’m sure!

Thanks for the recipes. Will try the cauliflower pizza one for sure. I try to avoid as much matzoh as possible.

Wishing you and your family a zissen pesach,

  Thanks so much! Hope your Pesach was great!
  
  Did you end up making the cauliflower pizza? I tried out a new recipe for cauliflower pizza bites that was really yummy.
  https://abbyphon.com/cauliflower-pizza-bites/ (great for any day not just Passover!) 🙂
  
  I totally agree with you and do the same! Except for a sephardic (vegan) eggplant “mina” (type lasagna/casserole using matzoh sheets for each layer), I managed to avoid most of the matzoh this year again.
