Polish Pierogi image

I'm from a small town in New Jersey where a number of Polish immigrants-including my parents-settled. My mother was a great cook who taught me lots of Polish recipes like this one, which I have adapted to use in my catering business. Also called Polish lasagna, it's a real crowd-pleaser! -Adeline Piscitelli, Sayreville, New Jersey
