Pierogi Shepherd's Pie #BakingBloggers

This delicious one skillet dinner starts with ground beef  sauteed with onion and garlic, drenched in gravy with vegetables and topped with potato cheese pierogi before being finished off in the oven.  Delicious, easy, quick and convenient.  A perfect weeknight meal.

Pierogi Shepherd's Pie

The Baking Bloggers are making dishes with ground and/or minced meats today.......
 It is time once again for Baking Bloggers, a fun group led by Sue of Palatable Pastime.  Each month Sue invites us to join her in baking a dish based on a theme or ingredient that we vote on the month prior.  This month we voted to bake a dish that contained ground or minced meat.  Let's take a look at what everyone baked up........
Pierogi Shepherd's Pie and wine

I paired this casual, easy, scrumptious dinner with a bottle of Cotes du Rhone wine.  Yes, we had corn in the pie and Frank also had to have corn as a side.  Every. single. night. during corn season.  I guess I should understand because I have to have wine with dinner every. single. night during every season LOL.

I had picked up these pierogi while at the Farmer's Market last week.  They were pretty darn good....I'll have to go get some more and stock up my freezer before Farmer's Market Season is over.

  3. I'd probably have to make my own pierogi because I'd have no idea where to find them frozen, but it would be so worth it! This sounds delish!

    2. I picked mine up at the Farmer's Market. We have a large Polish community in Michigan so they are easy to find around here. Good luck Karen. Thanks for letting her know of a source Tara.
