TRADITIONAL SLOVAK HALUSKI
This has been in my family for generations coming from Czechoslovakia. Traditionally, it is mixed with goat cheese from Czechoslovakia but since it's not available here in the States, we use brick cheese or feta. We eat this as a main meal but can be served as a side. Serve as is or add kielbasa on the side or slice up kielbasa and mix it in with haluski! Serve with warm crusty bread.

Steps:
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels. When bacon is cool, crumble and set aside.
- Place potatoes into a food processor and process until pureed, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and stir in flour, eggs, baking powder, and salt to make a sticky dough. Set dough aside.
- Fill a large pot about half full of lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Ladle large spoonfuls of the sticky dough to a small cutting board and use a knife to chop the dough into tablespoon-size pieces; as you cut off a piece, drop it into the boiling water. Let the dumplings boil over medium heat until they float, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon to a large serving bowl.
- Sprinkle bacon crumbles and a handful of shredded brick cheese over each batch of dumplings; continue to make, boil, and transfer dumplings to the bowl, sprinkling each batch with bacon and brick cheese. When all dumplings are made, gently stir the haluski to mix all ingredients.

OLD FASHIONED, AUTHENTIC, HUNKY HALUPKI

Steps:
- Method:.
- - Core and boil the cabbage heads.
- -- remove outer leaves as they become blanched -- do not over-cook.
- -- stack on cookie sheet as they come out of the water - they will continue to soften.
- -- cut thick vein from each leaf.
- - mix together your meat, drained rice, chopped onion, garlic powder, parsley, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and egg.
- -- to sweeten up the meat a bit, I add a good squirt of ketchup (there's only one brand - Heinz) and 1/2 can of tomato soup (you probably don't need this if you use pork - but at least try the ketchup).
- - fill your rolls and roll 'em up -- don't roll too tight - you will be able to tuck in the ends by pushing in with your little finger -- if they're rolled to tight, they'll explode in your hand -- or fold over the ends of the leaf when rolling sort of like a round burrito.
- -- it doesn't take long to do this -- have fun.
- Now for the artistry:.
- - Line the bottom of your roaster with bacon - roaster should be deep enough to add several layers and hold adequate liquid.
- - Top the bacon with a good layer of left-over cabbage leaves -- the ones too small to roll or ripped leaves.
- - layer with sauerkraut.
- - sprinkle a little caraway seeds.
- - layer with thickly sliced onion and chopped garlic.
- - add 6-10 bay leaves, depending on the amount.
- - layer the halupki - alternating direction of layers.
- -- incorporate 2 - 3 inch lengths of kielbasa throughout.
- - add remaining tomato soup if used.
- - add tomatoes and sauce.
- - salt and pepper.
- - add cabbage water to cover.
- Bake at 350 for one hour then reduce heat to 250 for three more hours.
- -- or reduce heat to 175-200 overnight - check to ensure enough liquid - don't dry them out.
- Serve with kick-ass mashed potatoes.
- - roast as much garlic as you would like in the potatoes.
- Cube potatoes and for best results add sea salt and refrigerate for a few hours.
- - rinse and drain potatoes, cover with water and lightly boil until soft.
- Mash together with butter, canned milk, cheddar/freshly grated Parmesan cheese, sea salt, white pepper, roasted garlic, jarred diced garlic, a little garlic powder, and grape seed oil.
- Now that's some good ol' Hunky eatin'!

HALUSHKI - CABBAGE AND NOODLES
A simple, yet hearty eastern European dish that is a family favorite. The cheese mixture is indescribable. This dish can be prepared a day or two in advance, then baked just before serving. It also doubles or triples very well for holiday feasts or large parties.

- Dice onion. Saute in 1/3 stick of butter until they start to get a little color, then set aside.
- Remove stem and chop cabbage into bite-sized pieces (about 3/4 inch). Saute in 2/3 stick of butter until tender and have a little color. Add to noodles.

- Add cheese mixture to noodles and cabbage and mix well. Pour into a glass 9 x 13 baking dish lightly coated with non-stick spray.
- Bake covered at 350°F for 30 minutes or until heated through. Uncover and bake an additional 10-15 minutes to crisp edges and top layer. Serve hot.
- DO NOT sauté the onions and cabbage together. The onions will burn before the cabbage is done. This also helps to better distribute the butter throughout the dish.

HALUSKI (PAN-FRIED CABBAGE AND NOODLES)
Haluski is a pan fried dish that both of my grandmothers used to make of butter, onion, cabbage and noodles. It makes a delicious main or side dish, whatever you're in the mood for. I personally like to let my cabbage get a little brown, but adjust your cooktime as necessary to your preference. The serving sizes will depend on how you are serving it.

SLOVAK HALUSKI
Often used during Lent, this meatless recipe has been passed down generation to generation in my family. This recipe makes a generous amount, which is great because Haluski tastes even better the second day. My Bubba (grandmother) made potato dumpling noodles to go with her cabbage. Also great served with any fish!

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. Cabbage and noodles are the main ingredients in haluski, but you can also add other vegetables, such as onions, carrots, celery, and bell peppers. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
- Cook the noodles al dente. This means that the noodles should be cooked until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
- Use a good quality sausage. The sausage is a key ingredient in haluski, so it's important to use a good quality sausage that is flavorful and has a good texture.
- Don't overcook the sausage. The sausage should be cooked until it is browned and cooked through, but it should not be overcooked, as this will make it tough and dry.
- Season the dish to taste. Haluski is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, or other spices to taste.
Conclusion:
Haluski is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is a great way to use up leftover sausage and vegetables, and it is also a budget-friendly meal. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious haluski that your family and friends will love.
