Before you jump to Mommom's Pierogi recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about The Basics of Being Healthy.

You already realize that, to achieve true health, your diet needs to be well balanced and nutritious and you need to get a good amount of exercise. Sadly, we do not always have the time or the power that this type of lifestyle demands. Working out at the gym isn’t something people decide to do when they get off from work. People crave junk food, not veggies (unless they are vegetarians). The good news is that making healthy choices doesn’t have to be a pain. If you are diligent you’ll get all of the activity and appropriate food choices you need. Here are some very simple ways to get healthy.

Consider the stairs. Rather than riding an elevator, walk up the stairs to the floor you live or work on. This isn’t as simple to do if you work on a very high floor but if you work on a lower floor, making use of the stairs is a great way to get some extra exercise. Even if you do live or work on one of the upper floors, you can still get out of the elevator early and climb up the stairs the rest of the way. So many people pick the elevator over climbing even a single flight of stairs. Even if you only have one flight to climb, climbing down and up it during the day is a great way to get extra exercise.

There are lots of things you can go after to become healthy. Not all of them demand fancy gym memberships or limited diets. You can do small things each day to improve upon your health and lose weight. Being clever when you choose your food and actions is where it begins. A proper amount of physical activity each day is also necessary. Don’t forget that health isn’t only about simply how much you weigh. You want your body to be powerful too.

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to mommom's pierogi recipe. To make mommom's pierogi you need 9 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you do it.

The ingredients needed to prepare Mommom's Pierogi:
  1. You need 5 lbs potatoes
  2. Take 2 lbs mixed cheese
  3. Provide flour
  4. Get eggs
  5. Take sour cream
  6. Get onions
  7. Provide butter
  8. Take salt
  9. Get pepper
Steps to make Mommom's Pierogi:
  1. 5lbs of potatoes makes about 100 pierogi. We always made a lot at one time because they take a lot of time to make. Mommom always had a large group together to make them and split up the duties. She would do 10 to 20 lbs of potatoes at a time.
  2. Peel, cube and boil the potatoes.
  3. Sauté an onion in a stick of butter.
  4. I used a mixer to mash the potatoes. Add the onion and butter mixture and cheese. I said 2 lbs but you can make it as cheesy as you like. My mommom always made them so cheesy the mashed potatoes were stretchy.
  5. To make the dough (i don't have measurements for this because we always did it by feel) You may have to make more than 1 batch of dough. We had to make a 2nd batch.
  6. Add flour to a large mixing bowl and add two eggs and some sour cream. Mix with your hand if the mixture is dry add some more sour cream. Once the mixture comes together kneed on the counter. The mixture will become sticky just add more flour. Let dough sit for about 10 minute.
  7. Set a large pot on the stove to boil.
  8. Roll a piece of dough out as thin as you can get it. While rolling out the dough you will need to add more flour and make sure you have plenty on the counter under the dough. Use a biscuit cutter or large glass to cut a circle. Place about a tablespoonful of potato mixture fold over dough and pinch closed. Your going to be making half moon shapes.
  9. Once you have some made place a few at a time into the pot of boiling water. Once they float, this happens quickly, remove from pot. If you want to freeze them you stop at this point and let them cool and freeze. If your eating them right away continue to the next step.
  10. If your going to eat these the same night put a sauté pan on with onions, as much as you like, and butter. You may go through a couple lbs of butter with this recipe.
  11. Put the boiled pierogis in the saute pan with butter and onions until lightly golden brown. Once golden brown they are ready to eat. My family always ate them with a little sour cream and a side of sauerkraut.
