Since Passover starts next week, today we’re sharing some of our favorite healthy recipes that will spice up any Seder table.
Because it’s our mission to keep your repertoire full of easy, healthy, and super tasty dishes to wow your loved ones this year.
We love featuring these recipe roundups because we know it can be tricky to find quality, healthy recipes that work for specific holidays. And it also gives us a chance to feature some of our favorite clean-eating food bloggers/chefs and their amazing recipes!
You can find all of these recipes either right here on our blog, or in our cookbook, The Conscious Cleanse Cookbook.
All of these healthy Passover recipes will provide the perfect spread for your celebrations. They’re similar to the traditional recipes you know and love, just gluten-free, dairy-free, and much lower in sugar.
And now, on to the recipes!
Matzo Ball Soup (from Elana Amsterdam): This low-carb paleo matzo ball soup is one of our all-time favorites. It’s completely gluten-free, grain-free and just hits the spot. Our friend Elana uses almond flour in place of matzo meal for a more allergen-friendly take on this classic Passover dish. Jo serves this recipe at her Passover Seder every year and it’s always a crowd pleaser.
Vanilla Almond Macaroons with Chocolate Drizzle (The Conscious Cleanse Cookbook, p. 220): Jo grew up eating the traditional Manichewitz canned macaroons, which are yummy but also full of artificial flavors, sugar and eggs (not to burst anyone’s bubble who loves this as their Passover staple). But if you’re looking for a cleaner version, then you’re going to love this simple, nearly-raw vegan recipe. Topped with a chocolate drizzle, you’ll be making this sweet treat year round.
Paleo Grain-Free Matzo (from Predominantly Paleo): This matzo is grain-free, gluten-free, and paleo-friendly! Year after year, Jo has reluctantly bought gluten-free matzo (unfortunately also filled with additives and sugar) because matzo plays such an important role in the Passover Seder. But recently she found Jennifer Robbins’ Paleo Grain-Free Matzo and was converted. For more amazing Jewish recipes, check out Jennifer Robbins’ The New Yiddish Kitchen.
Salted Date Caramels: These little caramels are vegan, dairy-free and refined sugar free – a huge uplevel from your average chocolate caramel treat. They’re sweetened with dates for a lower-sugar and higher-fiber caramel center. Plus, they’re easier to make than you’d think!
Molten Chocolate Cake with Coconut Whipped Cream (The Conscious Cleanse Cookbook, p. 210): This decadent cake is grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, kosher for Passover and totally YUM. They’re grain-free, gluten-free, dairy-free, and perfectly oozing with dark chocolate. If you’re a chocolate lover, like we are, these are a must.
Herb Crusted Lamb Roast: If you’re looking for a show-stopping centerpiece for your Seder table, we’ve got you covered. Our Herb Crusted Lamb Roast is the perfect cleanse-friendly alternative to brisket, plus the fresh herbs add so much rich flavor. Lamb is nutrient-dense meat; it’s a great source of protein, healthy fats, iron, essential B vitamins, and zinc.
Carrot Cake Bites (The Conscious Cleanse Cookbook, p. 218): This raw carrot cake-inspired vegan treat transforms a sugar- and gluten-filled gut bomb and takes it to a superfood level. Plus it’s quick and easy to whip up, making it the perfect bite-sized dessert for your Passover or Easter gathering.
