Since launching in 2013, we’ve compiled a Top 10 recipe list for Passover (as well as one for Rosh Hashanah/Yom Kippur and one for Chanukah). It’s one of our favorite parts of the year and forces us to think outside of the box—the matzah box, if you will.

This year, instead of picking ten recipes, we decided to tackle four categories that are notoriously boring or challenging when it comes to Passover—haroset, matzah balls, breakfast and dessert—creating, instead, a recipe roundup addressing all your Passover needs.

We have a hunch that with so much variety, after this Passover, regular sandwiches will feel like the real bread of affliction…
