For the lady who wanted pierogies. Here's my solution to a more involved original prep! It's delicious.

  • I don't know if I would call these pierogies, but this sure makes a great tasting casserole. The next time I make it, I'm going to add some chopped chives throughout the layers.

  • Try this using Farmers Cheese instead of cottage cheese, I've never heard of using cottage cheese but to eaches own!! I think she made an error with the amt of margerine....mashed potatoes should be prepared and mixed with farmers cheese, 1/2 cup sauted onions. Thanks for the recipe though :)

  • i never saw a pierogie with cottage cheese - potatoes and onions or cheese or jalepenos maybe but not cottage cheese. are the mashed potatoes prepared?

  • 1 cup of margarine seems excessive to saute 1 cup of onions. I would use EVOO and just a T. or 2.
