Noodle Kugel
"Tastes like home"

My dad makes this for holiday meals without fail. This always reminds me of home. While technically a pudding, it is more reminiscent of a baked pasta dish. It tastes a lot like rice pudding and can be eaten warm or cold. It can also be eaten as a side dish, dessert or breakfast. Or even straight out of the pan.
