Ingredients

  • 2 (16-oz) packages frozen Classic Cheddar Pierogies
  • 2 (10.5-oz) cans Unsalted Cream of Chicken Soup
  • 1 (16-oz) container sour cream
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 4 cups cooked chopped chicken
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375ºF. Lightly spray a 9x13x2-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the frozen pierogies, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, cooked chopped chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix thoroughly to blend all ingredients evenly.
  3. Step 3: Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
  4. Step 4: Bake uncovered for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and heated through. Let it cool slightly before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • For extra flavor, try adding a teaspoon of dried thyme or rosemary to the mixture.
  • Swap frozen mixed vegetables for fresh veggies like peas, carrots, or green beans based on what you have on hand.
  • If you prefer, use rotisserie chicken to save time on cooking the chicken.
  • Top with extra shredded cheese during the last 5 minutes of baking for a melty, golden crust.

Storage

Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave until warmed through, or reheat the entire casserole in a 350ºF oven for about 15-20 minutes until hot.
