Recipes to Use Your Homemade Matzah In

Recipes to Use Homemade Matzah Bread In - Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread recipes | Land of Honey

What do you eat with unleavened bread? If you're making your own matzah from my recipe or something similar, it will be comparable to Indian naan bread. Like naan, homemade matzah goes great with curries and soups! The possibilities don't stop there though: you can make some serious breakfast sandwiches with homemade matzah or make crispy unleavened bread and dip it into hummus or labneh. Or try using it as a base for pizza or a tasty flatbread. This is a versatile ingredient, so there are all sorts of possibilities out there!

Homemade matzah works well in place of naan, pita, crackers, or even bagels in the recipes below. Make yourself a batch and you'll be eating well this week!

Passover Menu Inspiration from the Seder Plate

A Passover menu that's inspired by the Seder plate - kosher for Passover recipes | Land of Honey
Pin It

Here's a Passover menu to think about trying this year. If you do a Seder plate, I think it's really fun to use those elements for your actual meal. While a Seder plate (consisting of a roasted lamb bone, bitter herb, some sort of vegetable, charoset, and horseradish) is traditional, I love that each elements tells part of the exodus and Passover story - the gospel in five courses, if you will. I've put together a menu based on these foods. These recipes are healthy, and can be made ahead of time. Other than the lamb, everything can be served cold or at room temperature - which I'm a huge fan of because sometimes Seder runs long, and this way I don't have to keep running back to the kitchen to keep an eye on things. You can feel free to cut out a few of the dishes and still have a wonderful meal. Are you hosting a potluck? Just email each person one of these recipes to bring.

Mediterranean Grilled Lamb Kabobs from Half Baked Harvest
Of course lamb is one of the centerpieces in the Passover meal of Exodus. While we no longer need animal sacrifice because of the Messiah, this is a great way to experience part of Scripture.

Einkorn Matzah Bread from Land of Honey
Unleavened bread is another food from the Passover story. This version is a hundred times better than the boxed stuff, if I do say so myself. It is also much more similar to what would have actually been eaten during the Biblical Passovers.

Chopped Greek Salad from Cookie and Kate
Romaine is often used as the 'bitter herb' that the Israelites were instructed to eat at the Passover right before the exodus. The bitterness reminds us of Israelite slavery and the bitterness of life without the Messiah. You can omit the feta cheese to avoid mixing with meat, if necessary.
Serve it with horseradish vinaigrette

Red Pepper Tabbouleh from Minimalist Baker
Parsley is used in traditional Seders as the "karpas" or vegetable which is dipped in salt water to remind us of the tears of the Israelites as they cried out to YHWH. This tabbouleh is a great use for the abundance of spring time parsley and goes well with lamb.

Charoset symbolizes laying bricks under slavery, because of its mortar-like consistency. The sweetness of it reminds us that he is faithful to work all things together for good.

To round out the meal...

These items aren't found on a Seder plate but go well with the above recipes.

Vegan Tzatziki from Minimalist Baker
Using lots of herbs this is fitting with the bitter herbs of Scripture. It's great with lamb or on the romaine salad or just as a veggie dip.
