๐Ÿ•’ Total Time: 40 minutes
๐Ÿฅ„ Yield: Serves 4-6
๐Ÿฝ Category: Potato
๐Ÿ” Keywords: Cheese, Vegetable, Polish, European, High In…, < 60 Mins, Oven, Easy

Ingredients:

  • 1 batch mashed potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 2-3 onions, thinly sliced
  • 9-12 lasagna noodles, cooked al dente

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Noodles: Begin by cooking the lasagna noodles according to the package instructions until they are al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. Saute Onions: In a skillet, melt 1 stick of butter over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and sautรฉ until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Feel free to add more butter if desired for extra richness.

  3. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC). Grease a 13×9 inch baking pan with the remaining 1/2 stick of butter.

  4. Prepare Potato Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with the sautรฉed onions, mixing until well incorporated. This will be your flavorful potato filling.

  5. Layer Casserole: Begin assembling the casserole by laying a single layer of cooked lasagna noodles at the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread a portion of the potato and onion mixture evenly over the noodles, followed by a generous sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese. Repeat this layering process, ending with a final layer of cheese on top.

  6. Bake: Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil, ensuring that it’s tightly sealed around the edges to trap the heat and moisture inside. Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the casserole is heated through.

  7. Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the foil from the casserole and let it cool slightly before serving. Slice into generous portions and serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
