I made Lukschen Kugel tonight as I have been craving it for a while and after this post, I thought it was only fair that I share the recipe and the meal with y'all.
Here are the noodles in a bowl soaking in the liquid.
Uncovered
Covered with the wonderful crunchy topping
Cooked and ready to eat
Here is the final meal, I added salmon and some leftover green beans that I re-heated to finish it off.
Here is the recipe.

Whoa baby. When can I get on a plane and find my way to NC?
Kugel worth traveling for! Thanks for sharing the visuals. Here I sit in Albany, drooling and longing.
That sounds so... undlady-like as my mother would say!
I have tried so very much to like kugal, and it is just one of those things that doesn't work for me. I think it is because my brain doesn't want to combine noodles with sweetness, the same way I can't wrap my brain around cucumber ice cream, which I have actually tried, by the way. My noodle sweetness objection is foolishness, I realize because noodles are really just, you know, dough, which is what bread is, and I like bread with sweet things.
That, or I have just had really bad kugel, which is entirely possible.
Mmmmm.
