This homemade take on the traditional pierogi and potato pancake combo will be a hit with the whole family.

Conveniently frozen, Heinen’s premade pierogies pair perfectly with freshly fried potato pancakes. My family loves serving this on a large platter with plenty of sour cream and green onions.
