Cheese Blintze Soufflé

Every household has certain traditions that are theirs. They are the routines that the family is used to. For certain holidays sometimes those traditions are passed down from generation to generation. For breaking fast the Guru house has their traditions just like most other homes. We make the usual bagels, lox, and cream cheese. Ok, you got me, we buy these items probably because it’s easy to serve, set up, and clear but as time goes on we started adding to these staples. One addition that we make is a blintz soufflé. I love cheese blintzes and can make them no problem but they are tedious and tiresome. It’s a real patchka, you might say. Well blintz soufflé may sound daunting but let me tell you its super simple. It’s basically a cheese blintz recipe but without the patchka. It might scare you because it’s 2 bowls but it’s really a cinch to put together and it’s always a crowd pleaser among both adults and kids.
