YUM! This sounds so good Esme, thank you for sharing!
Hi Cara, Thank you for checking it out and visiting here. Hope you have a wonderful weekend and should you try this enjoy it.
I genuinely don’t remember when I last ate Irish potatoes aka spuds. Can one replace them with sweet potatoes Esme? IN fact I just might try that with Sweet potas. Thanks for sharing at the #SSPS
Hi Julie. I have not prepared this recipe but looking at it I am sure that you can use sweet potatoes in stead of spuds. When you make it, please let us know how it turned out. Enjoy.
Esme’ I grew up on perogies. And I love them! So I for sure pinned this 📌.
