This was a great time-saving idea! I used a layer of plain macaroni in a greased 9x13 then a layer of sliced American cheese, followed by real mashed potatoes, followed by carmalized onions, garlic, and cabbage, I sprinkled some shredded 4 cheese blend on top of that. It was delicious and filling!

I used real mashed potatoes and added garlic salt and pepper for a little extra flavor. This is such a great side dish, or it could be used as main course with a salad on the side. Serve with a dollup of sour cream. Thanks for the great recipe!

Yum..Yum..Yum! I would easily give this 4-1/2 stars. I was surprised how much this tasted like pierogies! As suggested by other reviewers I made homeade mashed potatoes and mixed my ingredients into the potatoes before layering with the lasagna noodles. I used a mixture of vermont white cheddar and yellow extra sharp cheddar. I also added some sour cream to the potato mix along with butter, salt & pepper & milk. I only used 1-1/4 large onion. I guess it depends on your onion size - but, 4 seems like a lot! I then layered between lasagna noodles as instructed - but ended with mashed potatoes and some grated cheese on top. I don't like to top any type of lasagna with the noodles - they tend to get too brown and "crunchy" around the edges. Really good and I will definitely make again.

If I had made it with real potatoes it would have got 5 stars!

Good for fast and easy taste of pierogies. I like others will use real potatoes and I will also brown my onions to carmelize next time I make this. Cover to protect the top layer from drying out for most of the cook time. I will make this again. Thank you for the recipe

It was alright. My expectations may have been to high, but I was a little let down. It really had a powered-potato taste to it. If I were to try again, I would use real potatoes. However, I don't think I'll be trying it again. Not for me. -- After having this dish again the next day as leftovers, I must come back and give it another star. It was much much better! This is great, considering the recipe makes quite a bit so you can make it sunday and enjoy it throughout the week very quickly.

Very, very good. Made almost 5 lbs worth... a bit more prep work required but well worth it. I would have added more onions because we love them and if you don't they get lost in the potatoes and doesn't flavor them much. I also added garlic powder to the instant potatoes. Very very good for parties!

The closest thing I can get to real pierogies. I added a little chopped jalenpeno to the onions while cooking them. It added a little kick to the traditional taste. Best with real taters and boiled noodles, too.

We call these Poor Man's Pierogies in my family...a staple dish. Lots of butter and sauteed onions make it. Easily punch it up to your tastes with a blend of cheeses (I like colby jack and cheddar). Great for large gatherings and a snap to make.

I don't think this recipe comes anywhere near replacing a genuine Pierogie recipe or is even in a Pierogie category. It is not a "keeper" for me.

I've made this many times. If I don't have homemade mash potatoes I use instant. The last time I made it I used instant 3 cheese potatoes and put it in large shells. It turned out great.

This was a GREAT recipe, and couldn't be any easier! My husband doesn't like onions, so I left out the onions, and just made some for the side. I also used colby cheese instead of cheddar, and it was DELICIOUS!! This will definately be a meal I make all the time. Thanks for sharing!!

Very good recipe, is a crowd pleaser. I used my own mashed potatoes. I also used the no boil Lasagna noodles, which I will not do again. The top and bottom layers of noodles were hard. Next time I will use the boil noodles.

Pretty good alternative, I probably won't make it again. I like pierogies fried in butter until they're crispy, this was very mushy.

This is really truly a delicious, easy, fantastic recipe. I've made it many times in varying ways. You can simply layer any cooked pasta and mashed potatoes in the same manner as this recipe and get awesome results. By following this recipe as listed, I recommend cooking at least 4 pieces less of a pound of lasagna...otherwise, there's too much pasta. Additionally, I never think that I have enough cheese with just one pound. This is always just soooo good and a total pleaser.

This is a delicious dish! This web site just keeps on kickin! I had a quart of leftover mashed potatoes and did a ingredient search for mashed potatoes and this was my choice from many. I sauted 2 onions in margerine, added to the potatoes along with 4 oz. creamed cheese and garlic. I used oven ready lasagna noodles. I covered the casserole with foil while baking. Very quick and easy for a great after work supper, served with leftover seven layer salad. Will make this again for sure!

This was pretty decent. I was a little skeptical - especially since I was serving it to my neighbors who are from Poland! They said it was good though and everyone seemed to enjoy it.

My Family loved it. I made a few alterations. I did not have noodles so I used tortillas, and I also added ground pork to the sauteed onions. I also added 1 clove of crushed garlic. My son had 3 helpings!
