Favorite Passover Recipes

By Giora Shimoni, About.com

There are a handful of Passover recipes that everyone makes every year. Like matza itself, without these popular Pesach dishes, it just wouldn't be Passover. Find recipes for Passover Rolls, Matza Brei and more.

1. Passover Rolls

Not a fan of matzo? These Passover Rolls are the perfect replacement. Children especially prefer the soft texture of these rolls over that of hard matzot. Throughout the holiday week, fill these rolls with tuna, jelly, cheese, hot dogs, or sandwich meat to make a satisfying Pesach sandwich.

2. Simple Matzo Brei

Matzo brei is so easy-to-make and tasty that it has become a Passover staple. My kids love matzo brei so much that they ask for it all year round. While there are fancy matzo brei recipes with vegetables and spices, my kids prefer to make and eat this simple matzo brei recipe.

3. Gourmet Matzo Brei

On the surface, matzo brei is simply scrambled eggs with matzo pieces inside. But in the case of matzo brei, the whole is better than the sum of its parts. Matzo brei is so easy-to-make and tasty that it has become a Passover staple. My kids love matzo brei so much that they ask for it all year round.

4. Matzo Farfal

Looking for a starchy side dish your kids will like to eat for dinner during the week of Passover? Serve this Matzo Farfel with meat and a green vegetable for a satiating Passover meal.

5. Passover Noodles

If you have a pre-teen in the house, this is a great recipe to let them prepare for Passover. My teen puts on the music and stands for hours happily making kosher for Passover blintzes which we later cut into strips for these Passover noodles. Since these noodles freeze so well, they can be prepared ahead of time, frozen, and enjoyed for Seder or during the week of Passover.
