This week I went back to my Ukrainian roots. My Dad was Ukrainian and this is one of the meals my Mom would make for him. Mom was not Ukrainian but she was always happy to make food my Dad liked. Halushki is one of those dishes that many countries in that part of Europe make, just had slightly different names. I've updated it just a tad by using olive oil instead of bacon fat. My Mom, of course, made it with bacon. This recipe is from a cookbook I got back in the 60's. It is called the Book of Golden Recipes and was compiled by St. Anne's Ukrainian Byzantine in Youngstown, Ohio.
