Bacon Pierogi Bake Since I'm cutting back on my baking to give my waistline a break I needed to come up with some sort of food-related post to keep you all interested. I've been wanting to make this bacon pierogi bake since I clipped the recipe out of an issue of Cooking Light back in December. I think it'll become a staple in our house as an easy weeknight dinner when I'm too tired to slave away in the kitchen for long. The recipe is absolutely perfect as written although I did leave off the tomatoes since I didn't have any on hand. The crispy bacon and cream cheese sauce lends so much flavor. Initially, I guffawed at the tiny serving size (three pierogis and a dash of sauce) but when paired with a salad the meal was plenty filling. Wish I'd had some fresh herbs to garnish my pierogis with, not only for the taste but to help spruce up my photo too. Not that you should need a picture to convince you to try something this yummy.

Recipe from Cooking Light

Yields: 4 servings (serving size: 3 pierogies and 2 tablespoons sauce) Posted by Lina Thomlinson at 8:47 PM Labels: Bacon, Baking, Pierogis 
pierogis are like my favorite things ever. also a favorite is bacon. combining them is genius, only to be topped by the addition of cheese. clearly thinking about the waistline here, eh?

YUMMO,,, this does sound yummy, and kinda healthy, is that what you're trying to convince me of, with BACON,,, he he. Ok, but since the serving size is ONLY 3 I guess it's possible, lol.
