We love perogies! I thought why not create my own version. I took these to a Christmas Party and they won rave reviews and I also took home an empty 9 x 13 - not a CRUMB to be found! Ingredients:
26 large pasta shells (cooked and drained) |
2 lbs mashed potatoes |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 tablespoon instant minced onion |
1/2 teaspoon onion salt |
8 ounces cheddar cheese |
potato, topping |
green onion (sliced tops included) |
Directions:
1. Boil and drain pasta shells. 2. Mix mashed potatoes, garlic salt, onion salt, dried minced onions and 4oz. of cheese. 3. (You may use cold or heated mashed potatoes-I prefer heated). 4. Using a small melon scoop, gourmet decorator or an Easy Accent decorator or even a small spoon, fill the shells with the potato mixture. 5. Place stuffed shells in a greased 9x13 pan. 6. Top shells with remaining cheese, green onions and potato topping, (I place 3 very small dabs of butter on top of the cheese before baking so they wont dry out). 7. Bake at 350°F for 30-45 minutes or until ready. |
