We love to have this Cottage Cheese & Pineapple Kugel in the fridge during Passover. It wakes a delicious lunch or side dish.
The recipe is from a cookbook I have had for many years. California Kosher published in 1991. My sister gave this to me & I use many recipes from it. The book is a collection of recipes from the Woman’s League of Adat Ari El Synagogue in North Hollywood California. This recipe was contributed to the book by Alice Greenfield. I have changed a few ingredients from the original recipe. The recipe here the way I make this dish
This is delicious served with sour cream or yoghurt or plain is great too!
The recipe is simple to prepare. Cottage cheese seems to be having a bit of a comeback right now so this is a good time to post this!
