VERENIKA (OR VERENKI) CASSEROLE
This is a fast version of regular verenika, which is individual dumplings filled with a cottage cheese mixture, boiled, then fried, and then served with a ham gravy. But it has the flavor of the original verenika dish. Once a year, regular verenika is served at our MCC sale to raise funds for the Mennonite Central Committee. I got the recipe from our church cookbook and have changed it just a little.

VERENIKA CASSEROLE
Verenika are a type of Scandinavian cheese dumpling. This recipe is from a Mennonite friend of my grandmother who would take it to potlucks and family gatherings. I have modified it for health and for use in a slow cooker.
