Your Vegetarian Passover Menu

Passover is in a little over a week and I still don’t know what we’re doing. My kids have a dance competition and we won’t find out their schedule until a few days before. And that’s my life as a dance mom. 😅

Here’s what I do know: we’ll be with my parents, we’ll eat matzo ball soup, we’ll have a Seder, and there will be a lot of veggies.

Because you always ask for more vegetarian/veggie-packed recipes, today I’ve put together a Passover menu filled with delicious vegetables. These are great on their own if you’re hosting vegetarian friends or will complement your brisket perfectly.

Now let’s manifest the first Ben-Ishay Seder where everyone eats the matzo ball soup. Here’s what’s on the menu this week:


To Start

  • Zaalouk

  • Spinach & Artichoke Dip

Mains & Sides

  • Caesar Salad with Garlicky Matzo with Crispy Tofu

  • Vegetarian Matzo Ball Soup

  • Brussels Sprouts with Slivered Almonds

  • Tomatoes & Chickpeas over Rice

  • Sautéed Cabbage

Dessert

  • Passover Sponge Cake

  • Chocolate Chip Mandel Bread
