Honestly, I'm hesitant to share this recipe now, as a Rosh Hashanah dish, because this absolutely perfect honey vinaigrette is so versatile,. so delicious, you definitely need to keep making it for all of your salads, all year long.

Apple and Date Pargiyot

September 17, 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! This is my favorite type of chicken dish to serve at holiday meal. It's a sauce chicken, which means I make it ahead of time and freeze it (yes! you read that right!), plus the sauce stands up to reheating on the hotplate. It's sweet, but not too sweet, it's soft and tender and just everything I look for in a chicken recipe! Feel free to sprinkle pomegranate seeds over the chicken for an extra symbolic element of this dish, but with apples, dates and carrots, you really can't go wrong here! Did you know that I share cooking demos, menu plans, … [Read more...]

August 15, 2024 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! This is really a tale of two recipes. A vegetarian salad with lots of quinoa and tons of veggies. It's delicious and filling - as you might expect. But then, we have the optional steak. This transforms the salad into a full meal, or a beautiful plated appetizer.  Speaking of meat, I want to introduce you to my favorite kosher meat source: Kosh.
