Steps:

• 2. Spray a 9X13 X2 inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside till needed.
• 3. Now add 4 tablespoons of butter to large skillet, I used a 16 inch size skillet, & heat till hot over medium high heat, then add in the frozen pierogis, and stir to prevent sticking and cook until they become lightly browned on both sides, then add the sautéed onions and peppers back into skillet and stir to blend together then remove from heat.
• 4. Add 1/2 of pierogi mixture into prepared casserole dish, then sprinkle with a teaspoon of basil.Top with half of bacon crumbles.
• 5. Now add half of Pasta Sauce. I'm showing 2 jars but I decided to only use one jar. Top with half the Shredded & sliced fresh mozzarella cheese.
• 6. Now Add the remaining pierogi mixture and top with the last of the vodka sauce & remaining teaspoon of dried basil.
• 7. Add the sliced fresh mozzarella, shredded mozzarella the real bacon bits, and add shredded sharp cheddar on top.
• 8. Bake in preheated 350 degrees F oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until hot and bubbly and cheese has melted. Remove from oven, and allow to sit 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
• 9. Serve and enjoy. This is all that remained for my final picture. It was really good and very cheesy, you can omit some of the cheese if you prefer less cheese, but FRESH MOZZARELLA really does make it cheesy & gooey good.
