How to Make Pierogies Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

  3. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  4. Arrange 4 egg noodles in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  5. In a medium bowl, combine 16 ounces cottage cheese, 1 large egg, and 2 teaspoons onion salt. Mix well.
  6. Spread the cottage cheese mixture evenly over the noodles in the baking dish.
  7. Arrange another 4 egg noodles on top of the cottage cheese layer.
