CROCK POT POTLUCK PIEROGIES WITH SAUTEED ONIONS AND BUTTER
Great idea for a football party, graduation party, any potluck get-together. I was assigned a hot side dish for a potluck work luncheon, served aside of hot dogs and other party appy's, and decided to try this out in the crockpot and it worked. It went over well; many people went back for seconds and came looking for the leftovers the next day.....it was the only dish that was gone! Very simple indeed, but it's one of those dishes that you hardly lift a finger yet it goes a long way. Would go great aside of hamburger BBQ, sausage sandwiches, bratwurst, hamburgers, etc or make as a main dish. Perfect if you don't have an oven or have limited oven space for your party cooking. I have figured on 16 servings/3 pierogies per person and prep time includes sautee of onion and butter.

Tips:
- For a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
- If you don't have a crock pot, you can make this dish in a Dutch oven over low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the pierogies are tender.
- You can also cook the pierogies separately and then add them to the sauce in the crock pot for the last 30 minutes of cooking.
- Serve with a side of sour cream, chives, or additional grated Parmesan cheese.
- For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Be sure to stir the pierogies occasionally so that they don't stick to the bottom of the crock pot.
