Dried fruit and nuts come together for a sweet spread that is ideal for passover, but also serves as a simple condiment on a variety of breakfast goods. Mix up the dried fruits using more or less figs & apricots or substitute raisins or dates. Find a Kosher concord grape wine if using this for passover. Simply use juice to make it more kid friendly.
A rich and magical combination of earthy yet sweet flavors. If you do not have fresh figs, rehydrate dried figs in hot broth or red wine. Any fresh herbs work, but mint or basil are especially bright and fun for balance.
These cherry tomatoes first hit your tongue with a bright, vinegary spiciness and as you bite down these flavors meld with the candy sweetness of the tomatoes. Adjust the red pepper flakes as you like to avoid too much spice or more for extra heat. The red onions become one with the sauce, making them taste less like their astringent selves and more marinated & spicy. This salad does well marinating in the fridge until you are ready to enjoy it.
The lightly dressed French lentils are inspired by Julia Child, as they use shallots, dijon and fresh herbs to enhance their flavor. French lentils have a slightly better integrity than the red or even brown lentils which become soft quickly. Regardless, avoid overcooking your lentils to avoid mush.
Take any potato size vegetable that you can cut into a long ‘French fry’ shape, toss it with a touch of oil and roast on high heat until they crisp up lightly and are tender in the middle. Grab your favorite dipping sauce and the kid in you will love this fun way to get veggies on your plate.
