This was a hearty soup and VERY EASY to make. My family liked it more than I did. I couldn't find condensed potato soup and used a Chunky style potato soup w/ roasted garlic. I also used half & half. They ate ALL of the soup (Mom had 2 bowls)! I think if I had the right potato soup, it would have been more "pumpkiny"...like I was expecting. Will try this soup again...great for COLD winter days/nights.

This was WONDERFUL! The whole family loved it. The recipe doesn't say crushed pineapple, but the directions mention it. I didn't use the sliced pineapple (forgot it) and nicely decorated the top w/ the cherries. On 1/2 of the kugel, I added raisins (1/2 the family likes raisins, the other half don't). I used a 16 oz can of crushed pineapple and so glad I did- YUMMY! I also used more noodles than the recipe (about 2-3 oz more). I know it's supposed to be a side dish, but I used it as my dessert and it was a smash! ENJOY!

I tried this a different way the other morning...I did NOT marinate. I placed everything in a slow cooker in the morning...LOTS of prunes & olives and probably 50% more wine! NO CAPERS for me. When I got home...to die for & so most. I used bone in breasts, no skin. Let's just say VERY YUMMY and I will make it this way again and again. Too easy!
