Pear and Apple Slaw<\/b>
\nFrom Vegan Passover Recipes<\/a> by Nancy Berkoff<\/p>\n

(Serves 5-6)<\/p>\n

1 pound (about 3 cups) fresh pears
\n½ cup (about 4 ounces) green or tart apple
\n2 Tablespoons lemon juice
\n1 cup finely shredded green cabbage
\n1 cup finely shredded red cabbage
\n2 Tablespoons oil
\n1 Tablespoon vinegar
\n½ teaspoon black pepper<\/p>\n

Wash and dice pears and apples (don\u2019t peel) and toss with lemon juice. Add green and red cabbage and toss. In a cup, mix oil, vinegar and pepper until combined. Toss with vegetables until well coated. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/u> Make a double batch of this recipe, as the flavor gets even better the second day!<\/p>\n

Syrian-Style Okra with Dried Fruit<\/b>
\nFrom The Lowfat Jewish Vegetarian Cookbook<\/a> by Debra Wasserman<\/p>\n

(Serves 4)<\/p>\n

½ pound okra, chopped
\n½ small onion, finely chopped
\n1 teaspoon oil
\n1 Tablespoon water
\n1½ cups dried fruit (about 8 ounces prunes, apricots, and\/or raisins, etc.)
\n½ cup prune juice
\n½ cup tomato juice
\n¼ lemon, minced (rind and fruit)<\/p>\n

Stir-fry okra and onion with oil and water in a large frying pan for 5 minutes over medium heat. Add dried fruit, juices, and lemon. Simmer 15 minutes, stirring often. Serve warm or chilled.<\/p>\n

Oh, and don\u2019t forget\u2026 Star K (orthodox) said quinoa can be used if certified Kosher for Passover. The OU on their website says it can be a local decision, so ask your rabbi. You easily can make sweet or spicy dishes with this grain or simply use it instead of rice as a base for vegetable-based dishes you are preparing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
