Chicken soup with noodles or kreplach or matzo balls

Chicken soup with noodles or kreplach or matzo balls by Donna Cohen Avery

I'm Jewish so I am very picky about chicken soup. This is actually what I make when someone in the family is not feeling well. We also make it as a beginning for every holiday meal. You can serve this with noodles, rice, matzo balls or kreplach. I'm providing the recipe with noodles for common appeal. In order to make this right…

Squash Souffle (pudding)

Squash Souffle (pudding) by Donna Cohen Avery

This is a wonderful recipe from my Grandmother that she got from her mother from the "old country", e.g. Lithuania. It is a staple on our holiday table and anyone who tries it loves it. You don't even have to like squash. If you are having lots of other side dishes, this goes quite far. You can make this with summer squash…

Keepsake Brownies

Keepsake Brownies by Donna Cohen Avery

My mother found this recipe in the Boston Globe magazine in the 1960's. It is easier than a boxed mix and sure tastes much better than one. We like these chewy so we bake them in an 8x8 inch pan.

Sweet Potato Casserole with coconut milk

Sweet Potato Casserole with coconut milk by Donna Cohen Avery

I had a can of coconut milk and no idea what to do with it. I threw this together and really liked it. This could become a holiday staple. It is a really good side dish with poultry. You can make a small amount as described in the recipe or double for a crowd sized casserole.

Roasted Rack of Lamb

Roasted Rack of Lamb by Donna Cohen Avery

http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/roasted-rack-of-lamb/Detail.aspx I have a great rack of lamb recipe from Mark Bittman but the "crust" always burns. I decided to look online and found this on All Recipe. I left out most of the salt and added shallots to the crust. It took a little longer to cook than it said and I turned the oven…
