I know this year is just flying by already, but who can believe the “P” holiday is almost here?! No, I’m not talking about Pesach – though that too is around the corner, but Purim comes first! So what better time to whip out a new hamantashen recipe! Lately I’ve been on a “lemon poppyseed” … [Read more…]
It’s no surprise here that before February rolls around, many of us start brainstorming what to make for our Superbowl parties. If you’re like me, usually you bounce around to about 2 or 3 potluck parties and it’s always quite the “show” to see who is bringing what and how spicy their dish is. Good time to … [Read more…]

And yes, I know I am encroaching on Rachel’s territory, but I think I have done … [Read more…]
I’m sure you all are in agreement with me that this year has just FLOWN by and it’s crazy that Hanukkah starts tomorrow night! So of course we had to bring you some unique latkes to this blog, am I right? For mine, I didn’t use any potatoes (I know, I know…you’re all shaking your head, … [Read more…]
I have been meaning to get this post out for a while, but it was a pretty crazy summer and life got in the way. Back on June 25th, 2017, Rachel and I competed in the 2nd Annual St. Louis Kosher BBQ competition hosted by Nusach Hari B’nai Zion (NHBZ) under the banner of our kosher … [Read more…]
It’s been a little over a month since our team “Five Dudes and a Vegetarian” competed once again in this year’s (6th annual) Kansas City Kosher BBQ competition! This year was a little bit different as the competition was part of the Kansas City Jewish Arts Festival at the Jewish Community Center, so the PR for the … [Read more…]
…And we’re BACK! It’s been so busy here, but we’re back to bring you some new “food challenges”. First up? PIZZA! This one could be harder than it seems.
