23 Passover Recipes For Your Holiday Celebration

Passover is a meaningful holiday that Jewish people around the world celebrate to remember the Exodus—the story of how the Israelites were freed from slavery in Egypt. It’s a time to come together, share festive meals, and keep traditions alive by retelling the story at the heart of the holiday.

A key custom is abstaining from eating leavened foods, such as bread and other baked goods, to remember how the Israelites left Egypt in such a hurry they couldn’t wait for their bread to rise. Instead, they ate matzo, unleavened bread, as a reminder of their swift departure.

Passover isn’t just about remembrance—it’s also a celebration of freedom that brings family and friends together around the table. From soul-warming matzo ball soup to slow-cooked brisket and sweet coconut macaroons, it’s a holiday full of meaning and good food. Wishing you a happy Passover!
