Ingredients

For the Casserole

24 oz Frozen Pierogi The heart of the dish; use fresh for a quicker cook.
1 lb Kielbasa A flavorful Polish sausage; try smoked sausage as a substitute.
1 cup Sour Cream Adds creamy tanginess; substitute low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt for a lighter twist.
1 medium Onion Building block of flavor; replace with shallots for subtle sweetness.
10.5 oz Condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup Creates a creamy base; swap with cream of chicken for a different taste.
2 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese Melts into a gooey finish; consider using Gruyère for a rich flavor.
2 tbsp Butter Provides richness; opt for olive oil for a healthier alternative.
1 tsp Salt Essential for seasoning; adjust according to your palate.
1 tsp Pepper Essential for seasoning; adjust according to your palate.
