Passover meals to go
On Passover, more than ever, we have to bring our food with us when we go out – and so many are going out over chol hamoed (the middle days of Passover)! But we’re more limited in what we can bring than normal, too. And anything prepackaged is REALLY expensive (if you can even find …
