I wish I had the equipment to make home-made pasta.

Pinchas, I’ve emailed you so that we can be in touch about your prize. Congrats!

Thank you to everyone who entered. If you haven’t already, check out the comments section on the giveaway post — you might find a few new ideas for the next time you have all day to spend in the kitchen.

Shavua tov, and stay tuned for more great recipes this week. I’ll be blogging about dishes to make for Pesach (like my delicious mini chocolate souffles) as well as ways to use up your lingering chametz…and things to use as a reward after a day of cleaning (cough cough, homemade iced coffee).

And if you’re thinking about Pesach menus in earnest, watch for my Pesach recipe round-up. It’s the easiest way to get 25 kosher l’Pesach recipes in one fell swoop.

It’s time for a giveaway! By the end of this week, one of you will own a copy of Jamie Geller’s second cookbook, Quick & Kosher: Meals in Minutes!

Meals in Minutes is serious about showing you how to fit cooking into a packed day. The recipes are divided into three chapters: 20-minute, 40-minute, and 60-minute meals, so you can choose the day’s dinner based on how much time you’ve got to prepare it.

Even better, each main dish is featured with a side dish (or drink) to complement it — which means you won’t have to spend any time coming up with something to round out the meal.

As we clean and cook for Pesach over the next couple of weeks, there’s less time than ever to put together elaborate meals. And that’s why this is the perfect pre-Pesach cookbook: With 165 recipes in the main section and the all-new recipes in the holiday section, there’s sure to be something to fit your schedule.

Want a peek? I’ve posted my versions of the white lasagna, garlic mashed potatoes, and chocolate pretzel crust tart from Meals in Minutes (though that last one wasn’t my typical post).

To enter:

The giveaway ends at midnight IST this Thursday, March 22. The winner will be announced and contacted by motsei Shabbos, March 24. Good luck!

This giveaway contest is sponsored by Joy of Kosher with Jamie Geller, but the opinions expressed in this post and elsewhere on the blog are my own.

The winner will be selected by an online random number generator to receive one copy of Quick & Kosher: Meals in Minutes, shipped to a U.S. address only. Live outside the U.S.? Consider having your prize shipped to a friend/relative planning to visit your area.

Entry #23, Pnina!

Pnina said:

sounds fun! I would love to write out a whole nice easy recipe. But to be honest, when there’s no time- it’s always pasta, cheese and jar of pasta sauce.

Pnina, I’ve emailed you so that we can be in touch about your prize. Congrats!

Thank you to everyone who entered. If you haven’t already, check out the comments section on the giveaway post — you might find a few new ideas for quick-fix dinners (I know I did!).

To those of you who didn’t win, good news: I’ll be giving away another cookbook around Purim time, so you’ll get another chance.

Shavua tov, and stay tuned for more great recipes this week. I’ll be blogging about a delicious winter cake, a no-frills kugel, and the amazing pumpkin chumus we had this Shabbos.

Oh, and pad thai. That just might be the week’s coolest dish.
