Sherri Mandell, I would like to thank you on behalf of humanity for sharing this sweet creation with us! It's fun to read, interesting, entertaining, and educational. It’s the first time in my life that I’ve seen storytelling in a cookbook, or maybe it’s a memoir that you can taste?

Yohay Sponder, comedian

WOW, Sherri Mandell is an amazing writer. This is an honest, spicy book filled with delight – a must-read for anyone who has yearned to find their place in the world.

Jamie Geller, best-selling cookbook author and founder of Kosher Network International

Such a great read! In her beautiful and typically evocative style, Sherri Mandell takes the reader on a personal culinary journey.–

Ruthie Blum, author and commentator

A great journey into unexpected adventures. Anyone can relate to this book. Sherri gives us recipes not only for the kitchen, but for life also.

Avi Liberman, comedian; author, Stranger Gigs and Traveling During the Pandemic

What does it mean to leave one home for another? Through food, memory, and hard-won wisdom, From Mac and Cheese to Matbucha chronicles Sherri Mandell’s journey from America to Israel, exploring the recipes – both in the kitchen and in life – that tested her faith, nourished her soul, and transformed her understanding of identity and belonging.

– Jennifer Lang, author of Places We Left Behind and Landed: A Yogi’s Memoir in Pieces and Poses

From Mac and Cheese to Matbucha is a beautiful reminder that the kitchen isn’t a place you’re born loving – it’s one you grow into. This book made me smile, made me hungry, and made me remember why I fell in love with food in the first place.
