Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package of frozen pierogis (around 24 oz)
  • 2 lbs kielbasa, sliced into rounds
  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups milk

  2. In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add diced onions and minced garlic; sauté until fragrant and translucent.
  3. Grease your crockpot. Spread half of the sliced kielbasa evenly at the bottom. Layer half of the pierogis on top, then sprinkle with a third of the sautéed onions and a handful of shredded cheese. Repeat layers: kielbasa, pierogis, onions, cheese.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together milk, sour cream, remaining melted butter, salt, and pepper. Pour evenly over the layered ingredients in the crockpot.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours, until pierogis are tender and flavors meld. To add a golden topping, sprinkle additional cheese during the last 30 minutes.
