MUFFIN SIZE PASSOVER VEGETABLE KUGELS



Muffin Size Passover Vegetable Kugels image

Some weeks ago Chia helped me with suggestions of how to make smaller sized kugels. And lo and behold, while browsing on the net I found this recipe. Tweaked it a bit to my liking and immediately tried it. Such a good idea to use muffin tins. Besides Passover, matzohmeal can of course be substituted for flour. Thanks Chia for the initial suggestions.

LAYERED VEGETABLE KUGEL



Layered Vegetable Kugel image

This kugel involves some work, but it is worth it. I got it from one of my new cookbooks that promotes "new-ish Jewish" cuisine, combining traditional recipes with a modern slant. I usually make this when we have vegetarian guests. It makes a huge amount, so it's a good recipe to bring to potlucks or parties, and you will get all the ooohs and aaaahs when everyone sees the layers, and then again, when they taste a piece.
