Mock Sou Boereg is a comforting Armenian-American casserole that brings all the flavors of traditional Sou Boereg—a layered pasta and cheese dish—into an easy, weeknight-friendly version. This simplified recipe skips the labor-intensive handmade dough of the original and instead uses egg noodles for a quicker, cozier take that’s perfect for family gatherings or potlucks.

The dish starts with tender egg noodles layered with Monterey Jack cheese, fresh parsley, and a touch of salt. The cheese is divided into two portions—one mixed with parsley for a burst of herby freshness, and the other saved for the golden, melty top. A generous dotting of butter gives Mock Sou Boereg its signature richness, while a sprinkle of Lawry’s or any seasoning salt adds the perfect finishing touch of flavor.

Baked at 350°F until the cheese bubbles and the top crisps to perfection, this Armenian-inspired casserole cuts beautifully into squares for serving. It’s a nostalgic dish that balances creamy, cheesy layers with just the right amount of buttery indulgence.

Mock Sou Boereg captures the heart of Armenian home cooking while adapting beautifully to the Armenian-American kitchen. It’s simple, crowd-pleasing, and endlessly comforting—proving that traditional flavors can thrive in modern, easy-to-make form. Perfect for dinner, celebrations, or whenever you crave a taste of heritage with minimal fuss.
