Lazy Perogi Casserole image

This recipe has cottage cheese and Cheddar cheese. It was a last ditch effort to try and serve a different kind of dinner.Update: 10/28/2008 this definitely needs some extra zing! I suggest you use red pepper flakes, make it a pinch or two - put it in the butter or margarine that you are going to use for the onions.;) Let the flakes cook while butter or margarine is heating up. Then saute the onions! Hopefully, this will help the dish be more pleasing to your palette. :)
