Jamie's Easiest Ever Shavuot Menu
Shavuos is MY holiday. Many of you know me as a recovering vegetarian having had to make the move for both professional and personal reasons. (I did marry one of the world's foremost meat eaters after all.)
But this here holiday is my time to shine! I'll go ahead and let it be known that my birthday dinner is also dairy. I'll be scoping out a new restaurant in Jerusalem this year for the big event. But I digress. Today it's all about my new menu for Shavuos, aka the Cheesecake Holiday.

(Here I go makin' minis again!) We have so many cheesecake recipes, both dairy and parve, so I figured I'd throw Hubby a bone for dessert since he doesn't like cheesecake (WHHHAAATTTT?!??!?) but really cause I don't want to eat the whole darn thing all by my lonesome.
Chag Sameach!
