This sweet kugel can be prepared a day in advance and baked the day of the meal. What this kugel lacks in our modern definition of "lightness", it makes up for in old-fashioned Jewish food flavor. Serve with baked salmon and Israeli salad for an easy-to-prepare and satisfying dairy meal that the whole family will enjoy.
