PIEROGIES WITH SAUSAGE, PEPPERS AND ONIONS
I found this recipe in Woman's World magazine. When I made this recipe I've baked my sausages for 30 minutes at 350 in a 1"-inch of water. During baking I've cooked my peppers, onions added the garlic for the last 5 minutes. After peppers and onions are tender I added my sliced sausages to brown them. I boiled my Pierogies for 15 minutes. I have added my pierogies to my sausage mix or I just top the pierogies with the sausage mix as serving. I skipped the mozzarella.

20-MINUTE CRISPY PIEROGIES WITH BROCCOLI AND SAUSAGE
This is a kid-friendly twist on the classic Italian combination of broccoli rabe and sausage. We discovered that cooking mini pierogies pot-sticker style in a hot skillet saved time (no waiting for water to boil) and left them both crispy and tender.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the pierogies snugly flat-side down in the skillet (there may be some overlapping). Cook until the bottoms just begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in 1/2 cup of water and simmer until the pierogi dough is tender and the water has completely evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium and continue cooking until the bottoms are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more; watch carefully as they can go from golden to burnt quickly. Remove from the heat.
- While the pierogies cook, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, squeeze the sausage out of the casings into the skillet. Cook the sausage, stirring frequently and breaking it up into bite-size pieces, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and pepper flakes and stir until the garlic begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Stir in the broccoli. Stir in the broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by half and the broccoli is tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Transfer the pierogies to a large, shallow serving dish and top with the sausage and broccoli mixture. Toss everything to combine and sprinkle with extra Parmesan.
