Usually I take Bubbe’s recipes and put a little spin on it. I take hummus- and what is that pumpkin in there? Crazy pills! I made rugelach, but doctored with nutella! And then there is Manischewitz- I sassed that up with even more booze! But there are other times when the original is hardly even recognizable. Sorry Bubbs!
That’s what I did with potato kugel. Traditionally, potato kugel is a grayish potato casserole, often served for Passover (sounds tantalizing doesn’t it?)
But I added a bit of pizzazz. I added zucchini and garlic and then made my kugel into cupcakes. Whoa!
Topped with a little Greek yogurt “frosting” and scallion “sprinkles”, this makes a tasty side dish. Check out the full recipe on my guest post on Cook Kosher!
And a big shalom to all my new readers out there! I hope Jew stick around!

You are my mother’s dream child. I absolutely must forward her the link to your blog. She will plotz:)
You really do have a great thing going here. Best of luck in culinary school!!!
Thanks, Jenn! My mother doesn’t think I’m that bad either.
Creative use of potatoes and zucchini!
Thanks, Gloria!
Thanks for the wonderful guest post. Looking forward to hear about your culinary school experience.
Thanks again for the opportunity, Leah!
Wonderful!!!! So much more appetizing than my green-looking potato kugel. Now I am the one who is green -with envy!!! Keep up the great creations – Bubbe
Thanks, Bubbe!!
This looks like a yummy twist on potato kugel. By the way potato kugel is only grayish when not made right. The potatoes need to be in ice cold water and you need to work fast. I have also heard that grating the potatoes after squash can keep the potatoes from turning brown/gray.
Thanks! Those are good tips on the potatoes. I guess only the potato kugel I ate growing up was grey!
This looks and sounds delicious. Want to try it but where’s the recipe w/instructions?
Thanks! Just follow the link at the bottom on the post!
checked out recipe page & it’s not there either. will try another site. thanks anyway.
