Onion Mushroom Kugel

I made this kugel for my first catering job. It was such a hit that I saved the recipes and have used it at almost every job since! The blend of flavors makes it one of my most requested recipes.

About

Tips:

This recipe freezes well. If you are cooking for a smaller crowd, simply divide the mixture into four to five lined loaf pans, bake, cook, and freeze.

Notes:

It’s very easy to double this recipe. I fry double the number of onions with three cans of mushrooms and make two kugels very efficiently.

this recipe mentions 6 onions twice- once diced and once in 1/2 rings; does this recipe therefore call for 12 onions?

Not sure what you could substitute them with. If you don't like mushrooms, I would recommend making an onion kugel recipe instead, like this one https://www.kosher.com/recipe/pesach-onion-kugel-2592
