10 of Our Favorite Recipes for Passover and Easter!
Both Passover and Easter celebrations are often centered around large, family-style meals. We’ve created a round up of some of our favorite recipes to share during the holidays, such as an easy, make ahead breakfast strata, tender, juicy braised leg of lamb, and some of our most loved spring side dishes.
If you happen to have an extra box of matzo lying around, we highly suggest you give our toffee matzo crack recipe a try, it is salty, crunchy, and so unbelievably delicious! In fact, it’s the only Passover dessert we serve every single year.
While there is endless inspiration to create holiday menus, we absolutely love these 10 recipes for Passover and Easter and hope they inspire meals for your special day!

Easy Breakfast Strata

This savory challah breakfast strata is made with sausage, mushrooms, onion, and fresh sage. It is entirely made ahead a day in advance, then baked off in the morning a half hour before sitting down to eat. You’ll love the custard-like texture of this fluffy breakfast casserole, which is similar in preparation to a bread pudding. A brunch dream from true, perfect for weekend and holiday entertaining!

Roasted Turkey Breast with White Wine Gravy

Whole roasted turkey breast with sage butter and white wine gravy is simple enough to create on a weeknight (seriously, we’ve done it!), but elegant enough to feed a group of 6-8 people without cooking up an entire turkey. The best part? You’ve still got a place to make the most delicious stuffing. You won’t get that with a boneless turkey breast recipe. Read on for tips!

Sous Vide Lamb Chops

These sous vide lamb chops are so tender and juicy, you’ll never want to cook them any other way! Use the sous vide cooking method to achieve perfectly cooked proteins every single time. Flavor lamb with garlic, oregano, and fresh lemon peel, then cook slowly for 3 hours in an immersion circulator. Finish by reverse searing quickly in a cast-iron skillet. A delicious dinner recipe that is impressive, yet easy!
