Grain & Legume-Free Chulent Recipe

Grain & Legume-Free Chulent Recipe

 What’s Shabbos without chulent? When I started Whole30, I was honestly stumped. It had to be grain-freelegume-freediabetic-friendly, and somehow filling enough for a long Shabbat afternoon—plus, my kids still had to actually want to eat it. No pressure, right?

At first, I tried making a creamy soup with meat, but it just didn’t feel “Shabbosy.” So I did what I always do when I’m stuck: went to the vegetable store to see what inspiration would hit.

That’s when I spotted celery root and turnips. Perfect. I’d never worked with celery root before, but I figured—with the right spices—I could recreate that classic chulent flavor without the usual grains and beans.

What came out of it is now our go-to: a rich, hearty, veggie-packed chulent that’s Whole30-compliant, diabetic-friendly, totally satisfying, and best of all—my kids love it.

Veggie-Packed Chulent

Shulie
This veggie-packed chulent is my go-to Shabbos comfort food—hearty, flavorful, and totally Whole30-friendly. It’s loaded with root veggies, warm spices, and tender meat, without any grains or legumes. It simmers low and slow until everything is melt-in-your-mouth perfect. My kids love it, and I love that it keeps everyone full and happy all Shabbos afternoon.

Sear the meat:

  • In a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat a thin layer of oil over medium-high heat. Sear the asado on all sides until browned (about 2–3 minutes per side).

Sauté the aromatics:

  • Add the chopped onion and whole garlic cloves to the pot. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until fragrant and lightly golden.

Add the veggies:

  • Add all chopped vegetables to the pot and stir to combine.

Shabbos Overnight Instructions (Crockpot or Blech):

  • Here’s how to do it:

Prep as directed:

  • Follow all the steps—sear the meat, sauté onion and garlic, add veggies, spices, and liquid.
  • Transfer to a crockpot or heavy pot:

– Crockpot: Set to low and leave overnight (12–16 hours).

    – Stovetop/Blech: Bring to a boil, then cover tightly and place on a blech or hot plate before Shabbos starts.

      Check liquid levels: Make sure ingredients are just covered with water or broth. Add a bit more to account for overnight simmering.

      • Serve hot on Shabbos day:

      FAQs
      Can I cook this chulent in a crockpot?
      Yes! After searing the meat and sautéing the aromatics in a pan, transfer everything to your crockpot. Cook on low for 8–12 hours overnight for a perfect Shabbat meal.
      Is this recipe freezer-friendly?
      Definitely. Let it cool fully, then store in individual containers for up to 2 months. Great for batch cooking!
      Can I make this vegetarian?
      You can! Swap the meat with mushrooms or a plant-based protein and use vegetable broth instead of water. Adjust spices to taste.
      Substitutions
      Asado with bone: You can use brisket, flanken, or even boneless chuck if preferred.
      Sweet potato: Swap for more white potato or butternut squash if needed.
      Tomato puree: Crushed tomatoes or tomato paste mixed with water will also work.
      Celery root: If unavailable, try turnip or more parsnip for a similar texture.
      Oil: Olive oil, avocado oil, or schmaltz all work well.

      Pesto-Chimichurri (Pestichurri) Sauce Recipe

      Pesto-Chimichurri (Pestichurri) Sauce Recipe

      If you’ve been around my kitchen long enough, you know I’m all about bold flavors—and shortcuts that don’t sacrifice taste. That’s exactly how Pestichurri was born: a happy hybrid of two of my favorite herby sauces—pesto and chimichurri.  

      I started playing around with this one day when I had way too much parsley in the fridge (a classic problem, right?). I wanted something fresh and zippy to serve over grilled veggies, but also creamy enough to stand in as a spread or dip. What came out of the blender was magic.

      This sauce hits all the notes: tangy, herby, nutty, and smooth—plus it’s dairy-free, Whole30-friendly, and so versatile. We love it over roasted chicken, fish, potatoes, or even mixed into eggs. It’s one of those “accidental staples” that now always has a home in my fridge.

      Shulie
      This sauce was born from one of those “use what’s in the fridge” moments. I wanted something bright, herby, and bold to bring life to simple proteins and veggies—and pestichurri was it. It’s part pesto, part chimichurri, and all flavor. The vinegar and lemon give it just the right tang, and the nuts add richness without dairy. I use it on everything from grilled chicken to roasted sweet potatoes.
