Passover is just around the corner! We’re so excited to be collaborating with our dear friend Rabbi Barry Dolinger of Congregation Beth Sholom to create a deep, rich, springtime spread of dishes that are great for one big seder or many smaller meals throughout a week.
Bitter endive dressed with honey. Bright orange romesco. Deep red borscht. Fluffy potatoes—Chris is even making vegetarian chopped liver inspired by a survey we did of your favorite Passover food memories. A nod to the past, a celebration of tradition, a hopeful look to the future.
And at the center of it all: matzo on a mission, baked the old way at Mitzvah Matzos using Maine Grains flour, with proceeds going to fight modern slavery (in the form of human trafficking).
This softer, more traditional matzo is finding its way into a luscious mushroom pâté enriched with Rhode Island Mushrooms and Grafton cheddar, perfect covered in lots of gravy…and since we’re in New England, there’s even Maple Matzo Fluffernutters!
Every item in this meal box, from your first sip of soup to your last bite of flourless chocolate cake, is Kosher for Passover — we want to thank Barry for helping Chris and our kitchen team do the hard work to get there with no added cost to you all!
All items are heat-and-eat or require minimal prep (5-10 minutes) to get on the table.
Attention! Extremely limited slots!
Order now to secure your spot for pickup or delivery on March 25 or 26.
Don’t forget to add extra matzo and Kosher wine to complete your order.

LET’S EAT MATZO!
Matzo Fluffernutter Kit
- 1 container almond butter
- 1 container Clem’s maple fluff
- 2 slices of soft wheat Mitzvah Matzo (the matzo company that Barry and his wife Naomi run in RI). Though this soft style may seem non-traditional, it in fact more accurately represents how Jews celebrated Passover for most of Jewish history. This is not the cracker-like matzo you might be used to. As Barry says, “it’s not your bubbie’s matzo—it’s your bubbie’s bubbie’s matzo.” Included in your box: a special note to Clover customers from Barry about the history of soft matzo.
- Make maple matzo fluffernutters by heating the matzo and adding nut butter and maple fluff!
- (Note – an earlier version of this menu had peanut butter listed, which we have since changed to almond butter)
Appetizers for your seder table
- 1 container romesco dip
- 1 container chopped liver (meatless of course, Chris is working his usual magic again)
- 1 pot chopped hardboiled eggs (yummy with chopped liver)
- 1 container raw veggies for dipping
- Anticipate needing more matzo to make soup or to have during your seder? We’re offering packs of Mitzvah Matzo as a supplemental item—be sure to add to your order before you check out.
