    Matzo Scallion Pancakes

    This Passover-friendly version of the classic Chinese takeout dish is a perfect vehicle for spring onions from the farmer's market. Note: while many recipes featured here call for matzo meal, you don't need to buy the stuff—simply gently pulse your leftover matzo in a food processor until it reaches your desired consistency (rough and breadcrumb-like for topping dishes with, more finely ground if you're baking with the stuff).

    Spinach and Matzo Pie

    Matzo plays the part of lasagna noodles here. Don't fear a crack-like, brittle crunch: The sheets get soaked in a cottage cheese mixture before getting baked to soften slightly.
