The Women of TRS Passover Cookbook:

More Than Just a Cookbook!

 

Passover begins on April 22nd. It’s not too early to start thinking about what to cook for your Seder meal during the week of the holiday. Spice up your Passover food experience with Women of TRS (WoTRS)…

Celebrating and Creating Traditions: Passover Recipes & Ideas.  It is a user-friendly digital cookbook that contains 120+ delicious recipes (also appropriate to make year-round). Explore some of the adventurous recipes such as blueberry soup, matza lasagna, shepherd’s pie, blintz soufflé, and so many more. There are several kid-friendly, easy-to-make recipes as well. This cookbook is a top-notch guide to the holiday. You’ll find soup-to-nuts sample Seder menus and a ‘how-to’ primer on setting the Seder table. Our easy-to-use digital cookbook also makes a perfect shower gift for a bride-to-be. 

 

A PDF download costs $10; proceeds go to the charities WoTRS supports. CONTACT: passovercookbook@templerodefshalom.org for questions. To place an order, Click HERE.

Each and every Wednesday, the Women of TRS welcome our own Temple Rodef Shalom members, as well as members of the community (new and experienced players) for some Mahj. We come to play the game, increase our skills, see old friends, and make new ones. We supply the tables and Mah Jongg sets; you need to bring your own Mah Jongg card. We would love for you to become a "regular". No advance registration is required; just show up. Cost is $5 per drop-in session. All proceeds go to charity. This is a major fundraiser for our sisterhood. It also fosters friendship and community.

FWC is a multi-day experience to hone leadership skills, further Jewish learning, partake in women-led worship and music, and deepen connections with other likeminded individuals and WRJ at large. Attendees will participate in workshops and learning sessions, create connections and network with each other, experience meaningful Shabbat worship and music, learn from experts and from each other, and enjoy time together with WRJ leaders and friends.
