When I first got this recipe I thought it would be strange to make this cake, then refrigerate it, and bake the next morning. But it's great. The cake is so moist and delicious. It's wonderful when you have company staying at your house, and it makes a great breakfast with a cup of coffee.

This is a potato and egg casserole that was used for Lenten meals by my in-laws. It is Hungarian in origin and everywhere I take it, I get requests for the recipe.
Copycat Chicken Noodle-O Soup
I grew up on Campbell's® chicken soups but my favorite was the NoodleO's®. Mainly due to the manageable size noodle for the spoon but also because the texture of the noodle was firmer and not mushy like the others. As an adult, I set out to make a copycat version and it took several attempts before getting it right. My previous attempts lacked the tang that you get with a can and the secret ingredient ended up being lemon juice. Who would have thought? Serve with crackers if desired.
