Pierogie Casserole
4 oz lasagna noodles, cooked
1 onion, chopped
1 tsp Soy Garden Natural Buttery Spread (the original recipe called for 2 T butter..this is what I used to sub)
2 c mashed potatoes (The original recipe used leftover mashed potatoes. I made mine fresh with soy milk, salt, pepper, & small amount - probably like 1/4-1/2 tsp - of Soy Garden Natural Buttery Spread)
1 c grated soy cheddar cheese
salt & pepper
Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray casserole dish with non stick spray.
Melt Soy Garden Natural Buttery Spread in non stick pan. Sauté onions till softened & beginning to brown.
Combine cheese & mashed potatoes, salt & pepper to taste. (I didn't add additional salt & pepper since they were already in my mashed potatoes.)
Layer noodles in bottom of casserole. Add a layer of potato mixture, then some onions. Repeat layer finishing with onions.
Bake to heat through, 15-20 min.
I served mine with a bit of soy sour cream.

I was just thinking I could go for some pierogies. I love them and was thinking about trying to change a recipe, if I can ever find one. My husband is Polish so we used to eat them all the time. Thanks, I will definatly try this one. Sounds easier than real perogies.

I know what you mean. Peirogies would be a perfect IBS staple if it weren't for the cheese! I've never seen any at the store that didn't have cheese. I have a coworker who is Polish & he tells me his mother who was from Poland used to make them without cheese. He thinks having cheese in them is weird. LOL I think it just gives him something else to complain about...he's usually pretty grumpy. LOL
Hope you like it!

Heidi - I'm half Polish (my Mom was born in Poland). She used to cook Polish dishes, like Procus (stuffed cabbage with ground beef in a sweet and sour sauce--kinda like Chemigurl's sweet and sour cabbage soup/stew). But, now she's gone and so is the Polish food! Does your husband have a source for Polish food recipes?

I forgot (and of course I remembered TODAY!  ) I halved this original recipe, so obviously this could be doubled. Or probably even tripled. We only have 2 here though, so this version I posted is plenty for us. Sorry for any confusion!

No, I don't have a source of Polish recipes. My husband's father is Polish and his mom died after childbirth when he was I think 18. My husband's grandfather passed away a couple years before we started dating. I know he love the cabage rolls but I haven't attempted them. I keep thinking of making the soup but haven't yet.
Mag, Mrs. T. makes a garlic pierogie that has no cheese. I just can't handle that much garlic.

Heidi - the sweet and sour soup is great. I've already made it twice and I have some in the freezer for a quick meal.

Really? I've had the Mrs. T's garlic ones before and I loved them. I thought they had cheese also though. I'm getting some this weekend. Thanks so much!!

They're a brand of perogies.

And, I see they sell them in CA.

I just noticed that. I could have sworn I found one without eggs or cheese. They were in a purple box. Who know?

I checked too...the sauerkraut (which I haven't seen in the store here), roasted garlic (ditto), and potato and onion (which are the ones I've eaten) do contain eggs but don't contain cheese and aren't very high in fat if you really eat just three. So maybe they're a potential "treat" food when you're really stable, if you can handle the eggs?

I think they all had margarine listed in the ingredients also. I'll just have to stick with the casserole, make my own variations, & have 1 giant safe pierogie instead of little measly ones.
