passover friendly - bitter lettuce and herb salad with horseradish dressing

March 15, 2021 Miranda Hammer
IMG_1072.JPG

Passover has many symbolic foods which commemorate the story of the Jews’ liberation from slavery in ancient Egypt. Bitter herbs or horseradish represent the bitterness of slavery and are traditionally served on a seder plate. If you are interested in making a symbolic dish that utilizes the bitter herb theme, consider this salad for your holiday table. It is filled with sliced radish, radicchio, parsley, romaine lettuce, and zippy lemon horseradish dressing. If you don’t celebrate Passover, this bitter herb and lettuce salad would make a welcome addition on any Easter or spring table. You can toss in some farro or bulgur wheat for a more hearty side or top with hard boiled eggs, slow roasted salmon, or grilled chicken for a light main.

gluten-free chocolate coconut macaroons

March 30, 2018 Miranda Hammer

Baking has never been my strong suit but, since embarking on my culinary journey in the Chef's Training Program at The Natural Gourmet Institute for Health and Culinary Arts, my feelings toward baking have improved. It was in the wheat-free and gluten-free baking class where my affinity for chocolate coconut macaroons was permanently realized and my appreciation for baking as an art form was confirmed. The simplicity of this decadent recipe is an easy sell, and its light and rich taste and texture seals the deal. Gluten-free chocolate coconut macaroons - perfect for Passover or for a seamless gluten-free treat.

If you are looking for an easy and delicious side for your holiday table, look no further than this simple carrot dish with flavorful nutty seedy dukkah finished with bold and tangy feta. If you are unfamiliar with dukkah, it is an Egyptian spice blend of aromatic spices, nuts, and seeds. It can be utilized in endless dishes as a topper for dips or vegetables or as a crust for roasted fish or meat. Its contents can also be adjusted to whatever you happen to have in your pantry. Regardless of what holiday you are celebrating this spring, this roasted carrot dish can make a beautiful addition to your festive table.
