Sinfully Easy Baked Pierogi Casserole
It only takes six ingredients to make this Sinfully Easy Baked Pierogi Casserole. Frozen pierogi are topped with a creamy sauce made from cream cheese and chicken stock. The casserole is then topped with Cheddar cheese and crispy bacon bits. After the casserole has baked until it is hot and bubbly, the pierogi are sprinkled with fresh green onions. This crowd-pleasing casserole will remind you of your favorite loaded baked potato casserole. This easy pierogi casserole recipe makes for a very rich and filling main dish. Because this casserole is so decadent, it would also make a great side dish for chicken or steak. The best thing about this pierogi casserole is that it can be made with any flavor of frozen pierogi, so you can always make it with your favorite flavor, or you can mix it up by making it with a different variety of pierogi every time.
Notes
These may be made with your favorite pierogi flavor (potato, cheese, meat, or sauerkraut). If using sauerkraut, you might add chopped, cook kielbasa sausage instead of bacon.

After thawing the pierogi, do you cook them before putting them into the baking dish, or do you put them in raw?
