Felichke

When I was growing up my dad made a dish using egg noodles and ham that was a family favorite. He always called it Felichke. I am not sure of the spelling, but it has been passed down throughout the family for decades. My dads side of the family is from what is now the Czech Republic and he makes a lot of dishes that are ethnically based. I had tons of leftover Christmas ham so I thought it would be perfect to use some of it here. I also figured it was time to make it for my husband who had never had it before. My daughter loves it and requests it several times a year. I usually comply because it is hearty, delicious and cheap. I don't have the formal recipe for it so bear with me.

Ingredients:
1 bag of wide egg noodles
1 - 2 cups of ham, depending on how much you like
1 large egg

Directions:
Cook the noodles in a large saucepan until al dente. Drain and set aside. Chop the ham and combine with the noodles. Crack the egg over the noodles and ham and mix together. Transfer the mixture into a large baking dish and bake at 350 until the noodles are beginning to brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.
