Israeli Za’atar Salad
Fresh vegetables tossed with sesame and sumac make a unique salad.
Jewish Recipes
Jewish cuisine includes a lot of root vegetables, dairy products, fried foods, apples, honey, and, for certain holidays, unleavened breads.
Matzo Balls
Matzo balls (also spelled matzoh) are traditional Jewish dumplings, usually made with chicken fat and served in chicken soup. This vegetarian version tastes great in vegetable soup.
Mayim’s Vegan Table
Mayim Bialik is an American actress, neuroscientist, and more importantly—at least from The Veggie Table's point of view—vegan mom. Mayim's Vegan Table is a collection of tips and simple recipes with a slight emphasis on Jewish dishes.

Red Lentil Soup
Red lentils turn into golden mush when cooked, but they taste divine, especially in simple recipes like this red lentil soup from Syria. Just a few ingredients bring out all the flavor you need for a hearty and delicious vegetarian / vegan red lentil soup.
Tofu Pastrami
Sweet and tangy marinated tofu makes a fine fake pastrami. Serve it with quinoa or rice, or thinly slice for sandwiches.

Vegan Cheese Blintzes
Although I've seen menus with various kinds of fruit blintzes listed, for me cheese blintzes are the only option. The creamy cheese filling complements the warm crêpe so nicely, I can't imagine filling it with anything else.
Vegetarian Hanukkah
Like most holidays, the Jewish celebration of Hanukkah has its own traditional recipes, some of which are vegetarian. Fried foods feature heavily, in remembrance of the oil that lasted for eight days.
