Vegan Zucchini Pancakes

We love pancakes. But this time, we’re changing things up – try them savory, instead of sweet! These wonders showcase some delicious zucchini and dill. Enjoy with a dollop of horseradish spread, if you’re feeling brave!

Carrot Cake Energy Balls

Speaking of the Easter Bunny, why not set him out a bit of a nibble for all his hard work (or for anyone who works hard in your home)! Roll up some deliciously un-sinful bites with the delectable flavor of a moist carrot cake.

Shakshuka

For some of us, nothing is more symbolic of spring than eggs and fresh green herbs. Serve this Middle Eastern delicacy with bread or with matzo, depending which week you cook it.
