Every holiday when ourr extended family gets together to celebrate the holiday with a large buffet. Traditionally, each of us usually brings our same specialty every year. I usually bring Polish Kielbasa, and my niece brings a Noodle Kugel Casserole. Since Covid, she wasn't able to come, and I wasn't about to suffer Kugel withdrawals, so I learned to make her recipe!
Everyone enjoyed the custard texture - this casserole recipe weighed about 5 pounds I would say, so be sure to bake in a sturdy dish!
It's delish, and the perfect blend of sweetness cinnamon, rich and eggy comfort food! A Noodle Kugel casserole dish is welcome at any holiday celebration - Thanksgiving - Christmas - New Year's Eve or brunch or party! Use a warming tray if serving a crowd/
Try something different instead of potatoes! Here's my recipe for Easter Kielbasa and my fun to make Easter Bunny Cake This recipe is also great for a brunch to be served during Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, New Years or any holiday party where there's a crowd.
My recipe for Bistro Baked Macaroni and Cheese is done in a water bath, and is also a party favorite.
Easy clean up in the kitchen with my Handmade Dish Cloths from Moomettes Crochet Shops!
Serve this Noodle Kugel in a pretty Casserole Dish for your family or guests.
