This is probably the number one most popular recipe from my cookbook, Real Life Pesach Cooking, and for good reason!

I figured it's time to give it a spot here on my blog, so here we go! Enjoy!  Tip: For a chocolate cake, replace the vanilla pudding mix with chocolate pudding mix. Or make one of each and marble them together.  Did you know that I share cooking demos, menu plans, … [Read more...]

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free! This, to me, is the ultimate pesach dessert. Sure, it's got a few components to make, BUT - each of them is relatively easy, and they are all pesach staples that you'll find a hundred other uses for! Feel free to make just some of the components, such as the mousse, but the whole package is certainly an incredible showstopper!

Maple Pulled Chicken with Cornbread Waffles

October 5, 2025 by overtimecook 3 Comments

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free! Waffles are one of my top 3 foods (along with dumplings and popcorn) and if you've only been enjoying waffles in a sweet format, you're missing on some of the best food you could be eating. Chicken and waffles is a famous southern dish, but my version swaps the fried chicken for maple pulled chicken (lighter and easier to prepare), swaps the big sweet waffles for mini cornbread waffles (prettier presentation!) and tops it with just the right toppings for tanginess and crunch!    If you're looking for a dish that will impress … [Read more...]

Pulled Corned Beef Tacos

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free! Don’t get me wrong - I love a good sweet glazed corned beef recipe as much as the next girl, but if you have never tried corned beef in a savory preparation, you’re definitely missing out! These fresh and flavorful tacos are a very different way to enjoy your roast this Yom Tov!  Did you know that I share cooking demos, menu plans, giveaways, and lots more exclusive content on Instagram?

Beef Potstickers Recipe

May 28, 2025 by overtimecook Leave a Comment

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? I send out a weekly menu plan, plus more. Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free!   Anyone who knows me in real life likely knows my top 3 favorite foods: dumplings, waffles and popcorn. (The order is dependent on the day, but almost always starts with dumplings.) And in my mind, there's simply no better dumpling than potstickers. If you're paying attention, that means that potstickers are my ultimate favorite food.  Honestly, it should be easy to understand why. These are crispy on one side, chewy on the other. They are fun to eat and even fun to make. I am so happy to finally be sharing the recipe with you. … [Read more...]

Do you receive the Overtime Cook email newsletter? It’s full of recipes, kitchen tips, menus and more! Click here to sign up. P.S – it’s completely free! Confession: I made this chocolate mousse because I am on a mission to clear out my pantry. I knew I wanted to make mousse of some kind, so I went to my pantry to see what I could find. And that's when I found a container of marshmallow fluff. The wheels in my brain started turning, and I came up with this incredible dessert.  The incredible thing about this recipe is the fantastic, pillowy texture that the marshmallow fluff gives this mousse. The other cool thing about this recipe is that there is an insanely rich chocolate … [Read more...]
