Ingredients
  

  • 1 - 14 ounce package Kasia's Home style potato and cheese-filled dumplings
  • ½ cup butter - cut into small cubes
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup heavy cream - note you can use whole milk or 2% milk in place of the heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper.
  • 8 slices of bacon - cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup breakfast sausage - cooked and crumbled
  • 1½ cups shredded Colby Jack Cheese or cheddar cheese
  • 3 Tablespoons fresh chives - chopped optional

Instructions
 

  • In a small pot, over medium-high heat, boil 1 quart of water. Carefully place the pierogies in the boiling water, and cook for 2 - 3 minutes, uncovered, or until they rise to the top of the pot. Sitr occasionally and drain.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil and heat. Carefully place the boiled and drained pierogi in the preheated skillet. Do not over-crowd. Cook on medium heat for 2–3 minutes per side. Turn occasionally during cooking time. They should be slightly golden.
  • Place the cooked pierogi on the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a medium skillet, melt the butter. Add flour. Stirring constantly until a thick roux forms. Slowly add heavy cream and seasonings. Stir constantly until a rich creamy sauce forms. About 3–5 minutes.
  • Pour cream sauce over baked pierogi arranged in the bottom of the 9 x 13 baking dish.
  • Sprinkle with cooked, crumbled, sausage and bacon.
  • Top with shredded cheese and sprinkle with chopped chives or green onions.
  • Preheat the oven to 350° (F). Bake for 30 minutes until the cheese is melted, and the sauce is bubbling. Serve.
