Lazy Perogy Casserole

Do you have one meal that is your unhealthy vice? One of my favourites is the lazy perky casserole.

There are so many great things about this casserole:

• It’s a quick easy recipe
• Can be made ahead of time & freezes great as a make ahead meal
• Isn’t super expensive to make, which makes it a GREAT potluck dish and for large groups of people because it is very filling
• The Lazy Perogy Casserole is one of my favourite meals to bring on a camping trip. (We bring it frozen and put it in our cooler. We usually eat it the second night we are camping, it serves as a great ice pack for the time its in the cooler as well.)
