POLISH PEROGIES w/ Wonton Skins image

I forgot who gave me this easy recipe. I in think Chgo.About 1989. It sure takes the work out of making them from scratch. If you like pierogies, you might like to try this recipe. I have made them many times.... and the family can't get enough of them Warning: For a family of 4 , you might want to double the recipe!

Cut up fresh green onions cut up and tossed over the perogies is a nice touch.
