1. Spinach-Feta Stuffed Salmon by Esty Wolbe
This elegant salmon stuffed with feta and fresh spinach couldn’t be simpler to prepare. Watch Easy Does It with Esty Wolbe for more super simple recipes.
2. Healthy Creamy Pesto Pasta by Maya Maizlech
3. Malawach Egg Rollups by Miriam Fried
These are actually my kids’ favorite lunch (or even supper). They beg me to make this all the time.
The crispy malawach adds the perfect crunch to the scrambled eggs. It may sound basic, but try it and see how delicious it is!
4. Faked Ziti by Esty Wolbe
This is my Faked Ziti (“Baked Ziti”). There’s no draining and no baking and the easiest thing to make for dinner. It’s super quick and you can do it all with one hand, because when it’s supper-o’clock you’re probably doing something else with the other. Watch the video!
5. Classic Fettuccine Alfredo by Charnie Kohn
To cook mouthwatering pasta, you don’t need much more than a few basic ingredients, so long as they are top notch in quality. Start with authentic Italian Tuscanini pasta and your job is halfway done.
6. Quick and Easy Maple Mustard Salmon by Erin Grunstein
A while ago, I shared an incredibly easy and delicious salmon recipe. Tonight I adapted that recipe and came up with this, which is just as easy and delicious.
7. Zucchini Soup by Dina Strauss
My kids’ favorite. Whenever I make a different soup, they ask, “Why didn’t you make green soup?”
8. French Onion Tomato Soup from the Dining In Cookbook
There are soup lovers who would give a fortune for this recipe. You don’t have to, so dig in and enjoy!
9. Pizza Ravioli with Garlic White Sauce by Victoria Dwek
Want to serve a restaurant-quality pasta dish at a dairy Shavuos meal? Not everything needs to be prepared in advance, and that includes the dishes that take five minutes to prep and serve (just don’t tell anyone). Once you have the ravioli in your freezer, you don’t need anything else since the sauce uses staple ingredients (no heavy cream!); it can be prepared in a pinch any time at all.
