There are times when I love introducing my non-Jewish friends to traditionally Jewish foods and other times when I feel just plain bad about it. For instance, I haven’t been able to persuade many people to join me in my love of kasha and bowties. But when it comes to this Kugel Recipe with Cottage Cheese, my job is pretty easy. It’s a consistent winner!

Oops! 6 eggs. So sorry for the oversight! I’ve updated the ingredients list.
I took a wild guess and made it with two- it was still yummy! I can’t wait to try it with 6 😀
So how many eggs?
