I remember making one several years ago from an on-line recipe that was
pretty bad.
I've found that most things that you use matzo for to emulate other foods
are pretty disappointing, the worst being the packaged mixes. Did you ever
try the 'Passover bagel' mixes? Just awful.
With the thousands of foods available to us, it shouldn't be that hard to
get through 8 days without bread and pasta.

Something labeled "Passover Bagel Mix" was never intended for purchase
by observant Jews, it's something observant Jews sell to goyim for an
outrageous price.... goyim thinking (goys can't really think) that
since bagels are Jewish then Passover bagels must be the best bagels.

Why no pasta for Passover... observant Jews eat more pasta during
Passover than any other time of the year. You obviously can't cook a
lick and you know nothing about Judaism... maybe you should move to
South Afrika.

I saw a recipe for matzo-granola on Martha Stewart today. There was
a side note on Jewish dietary practice that explained why the recipe
calls for margarine and not butter.

Forget the rabbinical rules, why did Jews go to a new batch of yeast at
Passover? The sourdough doesn't get dangerous does it, unlike shellfish
in the Palestine summer and I won't discuss the eating habits of pigs.

i'll let an actual Jew give the real reason, but I'm assuming it is
because they are supposed to clean out all yeast and other leaven, so
they don't have it any more.

If there's no meat or pasta in it, it's fine. Jeffrey Nathan had one on
a PBS show. Looked OK, considering.

That almost looked edible!
TMU made a pot of chicken soup in the slow cooker overnight. She made
matzo balls to put in it. We took the lot (slow cooker and all) to the
beading class we go to on Mondays. Was amazed at how many people had
never had chicken soup with matzo balls! One of the maintenance chaps
came by and took a bowl. He left the room for a few minutes and returned
with two colleagues LOL. Trouble is, the three of them finished off the
dumplings :(
A good time was had by all. Someone else brought a very good
chocolate/coconut cake.

Observant Jews do *NOT* eat pasta on Passover. Pasta is chametz, a
product that is considered "leaven" and prohibited. The food that is the
most consumed is probably potatoes and eggs. Everything needs eggs.
I have seen kosher for Passover noodles that are made of matzo meal, but
I've never tasted them. I do remember making Passover "spaghetti" as a
kid by rolling little bits of a matzo meal based dough into strands. It
was awful!
I'm just back from our community seder and there wasn't a noodle in the
place.

My wife makes this every year to use as breakfast cereal. It's addictive
enough to be referred to as 'Passover Heroin'. This to differentiate it from
the toffee and chocolate covered matzoh dessert I make which is known as
'Passover' crack'. I asked her to hide the stuff from me this year cause I
have no willpower when it comes to that stuff.
