Recipe FAQs

→ Can I swap pierogi flavors?
Sure, any kind is fine, but cheese ones pair nicely with the sauce.
→ Is high heat an option?
Absolutely, cook it on high in about 3-4 hours instead of the 6 on low.
→ Would turkey kielbasa be okay?
Yep, any cooked sausage will work great here.
→ Why save cream cheese for last?
It helps avoid clumps and gives you a velvety texture.
→ Should I freeze the extras?
Not a good idea, since the sauce might separate when thawed.
