I made this for the second night of Passover. Everyone really liked it. The broccoli portion of the recipe is absolutely delicious and I think I will make a kugel just of that next time! It is a time consuming dish but I was very pleased to bring something different and tasty to my FIL's for dinner. Thanks for another great recipe Mirjam.

This recipie is very time consuming as noted but worth every moment. I get raves with it every year. This year I think I will use the suggestion of making it in layers and stages. I plan on doubling it and making it in two seperate pans . . . This is one to use year round and not just on Passover . . . It is not only yummy but it is pretty :)

Finally got to try this. Very hard to rate. I'm with the group that didn't particularly care for the flavors together. Apart the layers were fabulous (I would double the broccoli layer though!) The smell of the carrot layer while assembling was mouth watering - the brown sugar, cinnamon and juices are a PERFECT combo. But I didn't care for it in conjunction with the garlic from the broccoli layer and the mushrooms from the cauliflower layer. Oddly enough - the cauliflower layer was the one I was unsure of, but it was my favorite! I used an 8oz package of mushrooms and slightly more onion then called for. I would make it again leaving out the carrot layer, and doubling the broccoli. Or make the carrot layer on it's own. I also want to say a BIG thank you to Mirj who got back to me ON Thanksgiving day to answer a question I had!

This is one of our family's favorites, and I keep forgetting to put my review here. The work involved is not that bad and it is well worth it. The flavors are perfect together, as these are flavors joined together quite often in vegetable 'medleys'. It always is beautiful to look at on the table as well. I need to remember to take photos this next time! This is a keeper we use time and time again!

This was a great kugel and all of the flavors went together beautifully. I used fresh vegetables. Instead of 1 cup of eggs for the broccoli and cauliflower layers, I used 3 eggs in each layer. (I think 4 eggs make 1 cup.) I used black pepper instead of white since that is what I had on hand. I used the pre-shredded carrots from the store and just broke them up a little with my spoon when combining ingredients. My tester was clean at 45 minutes of baking. I also had to reheat the kugel so additional baking was done at that time. It took me a lot longer than 30 minutes of prep time, but it was worth it.

<p>October 2011: It's been 10 years since I came into Zaar one day at the recommendation of someone on another website. If you ask my husband (or my coworkers), I haven't logged out since! <br /><br /><a href=http://www.TickerFactory.com/><br /><img src=http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/4;15;0/st/20011021/e/I Joined Zaar%21/dt/6/k/f656/event.png border=0 alt= /></a> <br /><br />So what's happened in the ten years since I became addicted to Zaar? Well, I've been happily married, happily divorced, and happily married once again. (Wanna see wedding pictures? Click <a href=http://community.webshots.com/user/mirjamdorn>here</a>.) <br /><br /><a href=http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v240/mirj/?action=view?t=chuppah2.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/mirj/chuppah2.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br />Originally from the Bronx, I've been living in Israel since 1983. I'm married to a brilliant man with the most yummy British accent (this is the part where he rolls his eyes and says, Yeah, yeah, yeah). Let's call him Sushiman, even though he hates that name. <a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/member/52282>Chia</a> gave him that nickname when I was trying to create a dinner to show off my culinary talents. I posted here on Zaar with questions about the menu and since sushi was the main focus of the meal, he became Sushiman. That dinner was just the first of what I hope will become a lifetime of meals together. <br /><br />This is a picture of us taken in September 2005 in Kew Gardens in London. It my favorite picture of the two of us. <br /><br /><a href=http://photobucket.com/ target=_blank><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/mirj/Kew.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting /></a> <br /><br />This comes in as a close second, taken March 2009: <br /><br /><a href=http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v240/mirj/?action=view?t=Wedding6.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/mirj/Wedding6.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br />I have 4 of the most gorgeous daughters in the known universe (tfu, tfu, tfu, that's me spitting three times to ward off the Evil Eye). Sushiman has 4 kids of his own, so together that makes us a family of ten, together with my dog and my step-dog (sadly, since I first wrote this my step-dog, Honey, crossed the Rainbow Bridge). We're the Brady Bunch on speed. Not all eight live with us, but everyone is in and out all of the time, so we're thinking about replacing our front door with one of those revolving thingies.</p>

Come on in, and let the Jewish Mothers of Zaar feed you senseless! <br /><br />I hope you enjoy my recipes. I have only posted recipes of food that I am willing to eat myself. Therefore, you won't find anything unkosher in my recipes. You won't find any stinky bleu cheese or goat's cheese either. You will find a lot of comfort food, I believe that comfort food is very important. <br /><br />Gay and Troy are always thanking us for making Recipezaar such a great place. I firmly believe that it's Gay and Troy themselves that deserve a multitude of thanks, from us!
