Pierogi Layered Casserole
Ingredients
  • 5 potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 pound bacon, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 (16 ounce) package lasagna noodles
  • 2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 (8 ounce) container sour cream
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Instructions
1
First, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
2
To begin cooking, submerge potatoes in a large pot filled with water to cover them completely. Place the pot over high heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil, cooking until the potatoes are tender. Next, remove the pot from heat and drain the water.
3
Then, combine the cooked potatoes with milk and 6 tablespoons of butter in a bowl. Use an electric mixer to mash the mixture until smooth, then set it aside.
4
Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add diced bacon, sautéed onion, and minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for 5-10 minutes or until the bacon is fully cooked.
5
According to package instructions, cook lasagna noodles separately. Once done, rinse them under running water and set aside.
6
Now, place half of the mashed potatoes into a 9x13 inch baking dish. Add one-third of the cheese on top, followed by a layer of lasagna noodles.
7
Repeat this process with the remaining potatoes, another one-third of the cheese, and a layer of noodles. Next, arrange the cooked bacon, onion, and garlic over the noodles.
8
Then, add another layer of noodles on top, followed by the final layer of cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9
Finally, bake the dish uncovered in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) for 30-45 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
10
Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream and garnish with chopped fresh chives.
