Preheat oven to 370 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cook the noodles according to package instructions and drain.

Add the remaining ingredients to the noodles, and mix well.

Place in a 9×13-inch pan and top with cherry pie filling. You can spread it over the entire kugel, or you can make stripes.

Mix together the ingredients for topping #2. Sprinkle over cherry pie filling, or fill the empty spaces between the stripes of cherry pie filling for alternating stripes.

Bake for 40-50 minutes.
