In my family, this would have been served as a side dish as an accompaniment to a dairy meal. This is a nice low-fat version of a dairy kugel as many of the kugels of this type can easily have double the calories and almost twice the fat content. -- Judi Mae Phelps From: http://www.recipelink.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
