MATZO KUGEL



Matzo Kugel image

My grandmother was known for being an amazing lady. She was also known for her Matzo Kugel and her Noodle Kugel. No matter the occasion, Passover, Rosh HaShana, Yom Kippur, or even Thanksgiving, this is what she was always asked to bring. It does not need to be a Jewish Holiday to enjoy this savory stuffing like casserole--nor do you need to be Jewish. This is so delicious year round and very, very easy.
