Baked Pierogi Casserole

Baked Pierogi Casserole is quick and delicious! Jazz up your frozen pierogies with this easy casserole.

Frozen potato/cheese pierogies are a regular dinnertime dish at our house. Mr Plain is a big fan of them.  I have never made them from scratch, but, we have eaten them fresh from restaurants and our local farmers market.  He tells that mine are better.

Yes, the frozen ones from the package. To each his own, right?

Well, I prefer the fresh, but, until fresh are made in my kitchen, which may not be happening too soon, the frozen will have to do. 😉

What you need for this recipe and a few notes:

• Frozen pierogies: Our pierogi flavor of choice is usually a cheddar/potato variety. But, any flavor will work..go with your favorite!
• You don’t have to defrost the pierogi before adding them to the casserole. Taking them frozen, right from the bag is fine.
• Bacon: You can cheat a little and use bacon bits instead of baking and then, crumbling the bacon. Saves you a step and a little time.
• 8 x 8 baking dish
• Cream cheese: Save a few calories and go with the 1/3 fat free version!
• Chicken broth
• Cheddar cheese.
• Green onions: these are optional, but, do add a nice flavor to the casserole.

This casserole gives regular frozen {or fresh} pierogies a little extra pizazz! It’s pierogies, cheese, more cheese and bacon! And isn’t everything a little better with cheese and bacon?
