    Recipe Introduction


    4 pierogies & 1/2 cup of sauce equals 4 pts. As long as you use the low fat Mrs. T's Pierogies.


    List of Ingredients


    • 1 lb. bag frozen tri-color pepper stir fry
    • 1 package Mrs. T's Low Fat Potato & Onion Pierogies
    • 1 (8-oz.) can tomato sauce
    • 1 tsp. dried oregano
    • 2 tsp. fennel seed, toasted & ground
    • 1/2 tsp. salt
    • 1/2 tsp. coarsely ground pepper


    Instructions


    1. Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over high heat. Add the pepper stir-fry and saute until lightly browned, 10 - 12 minutes. At first the frozen peppers and onions will give off water, but continue cooking them until the water evaporates and they brown lightly.
    2. Meanwhile, cook the pierogies in boiling water until thawed, 3 - 5 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Keep the pierogies warm.
    3. Add the reserved cooking liquid, the tomato sauce, oregano, fennel, salt and ground pepper to the pepper stir-fry, and simmer 1 minute. Serve the pierogies with the sauce.
    4. NOTE: To toast and grind the fennel seeds, place them in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat. toast, shaking the pan and stirring constantly, until lightly browned and fragrant, 2 - 3 mnutes. Watch them carefully when toasting, seeds can burn quickly. transfer seeds to a spice grinder and grind to a powder. Or grind with a mortar and pestle. Or pound the seeds between 2 clean kitchen towels with a mallet until finely crushed.
