How to Make Pierogi Casserole

  1. Cook 1 pound egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. While noodles cook, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add 1 medium chopped onion and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Prepare 2 cups of instant mashed potatoes according to package directions.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  5. Grease a 13x9 inch casserole dish.
  6. Place half of the cooked noodles in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
  7. Layer with 8 slices of cheese, then top with all of the mashed potatoes.
  8. Add the remaining noodles and top with the remaining 8 slices of cheese.
  9. Using a fork, poke several holes through the top layer of cheese to allow steam to escape.
  10. Pour the butter and onion mixture evenly over the top, ensuring it seeps through the holes.
  11. Bake for 25 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
