Perogy Casserole Recipe

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place the potatoes in a large pot with water to cover
over high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the
potatoes are tender. Remove from heat, drain, then
combine with the milk and 6 tablespoons of butter,
mash and set aside.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of the butter in a
large skillet over medium high heat. Saute the bacon,
onion and garlic in the butter for 5 to 10 minutes,
or until the bacon is fully cooked.
Cook the lasagna noodles according to package directions
and cool under running water.
Place 1/2 of the mashed potatoes into the bottom
of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Top this with 1/3 of the
cheese, followed by a layer of lasagna noodles. Repeat
this with the remaining potatoes, another 1/3
of the cheese and a layer of noodles. Then arrange
the bacon, onion and garlic over the noodles, then
another layer of noodles, and finally top all with
the remaining cheese. Season with salt and pepper
to taste.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C)
for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the cheese is melted
and bubbly. Serve with sour cream and chopped
fresh chives.
