Hello my dear readers,

Also, very easy. You will be using your favorite store bought pieorogi.

This pizza is perfect for lunch, dinner, lazy Sundays or the football season. Or any time life gets crazy and you think you are watching the movie… but you are actually living the life.

So, let’s start making our 5 star recipe called Pierogi Homemade Pizza.

Our first step is getting all ingredients or I like to call it:

SHOPPING LIST

  • flour
  • cheese
  • mushrooms
  • yeast
  • salt, sugar
  • Oregano
  • oil
  • pierogi (buy your favorite kind)
  • feta cheese
  • pizza sauce

How to make Pierogi Homemade Pizza

Ingredients

1 cup + 3/4 cup  + 1/8 cup AP flour (almost 2 cups)

1 tsp instant yeast

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 cup water (you will use 1/4 cup + 3/4 cup)

1 tsp salt

1/4 tsp sugar

THE TOPPINGS

mushrooms, grated mozzarella cheese, Oregano, Pierogi, Feta cheese

INSTRUCTIONS

This is my favorite pizza dough. I made this recipe about billion times and will continue.

So, let’s start.

In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup of water, yeast and salt. Let stand for 5 min.

Add 3/4 cup warm water, 2 TBSP olive oil, 1/4 tsp sugar.

Mix all ingredients together using a metal spoon.

Add 1 cup of flour and mix with a spoon.

Then add 3/4 cup of flour and keep mixing

until the spoon says: “Leave me alone your hard working bitch!”

Trust me, you will hear it. At this point retire your spoon unless you want the conflict to escalate.

Since I know you are kind and peaceful human being you will start using your hands at this point.

Calmly and surely. (don’t be afraid, you need to practice)

Knead dough until smooth, adding more flour by TBSP. You will know. If you add 2 TBSP of flour and

dough is happy you can stop at that point. You don’t need to use all 1/8 cup of flour.

Transfer to prepared bowl and coat with olive oil. (or use the oil you have)

Cover bowl with tea towel and let dough rise in warm area until double in volume, about 60 min or 1 hour.

THE PIZZA TOPPINGS AND FUN

Flatten your dough ball with your hands and stretch out into a round or any shape that you like. (about 9 inches or 23 cm)

Brush dough top with organic olive oil.

Spread the pizza sauce all over the top of pizza.

After that add toppings: mushrooms and mozzarella grated cheese.

To finish sprinkle olive oil and add generous amount of dry oregano.

Bake at 400 F for about 21 minutes.

While your pizza is baking in oven we will need to cook pierogi.

Take 3 to 5 pieces and cook in boiled water according to the instructions.

Remove pierogi from water. Dry them using the paper towel.

Your next step is to remove pizza from the oven. If you are asking when to remove…

Remember, after 21 minutes remove pizza from the oven.

Cover the pizza with cooked pierogi.

Top each pierogi with small slice of mozzarella cheese.

Return to the oven and bake for additional 2 to 4 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Then remove pizza from oven and sprinkle the feta cheese on top of it.

Optional: you can top with fresh onions, garlic or sour cream.

Say thank you. Life is good.

Serve with your favorite salad like Healthy Greek Salad or Healthy Homemade Salad

CONCLUSION

I hope you enjoyed this amazing recipe called Pierogi Homemade Pizza.

Now, I want to hear from you. Yes, YOU!

Do you enjoy pierogi or pizza?

What is your favorite pierogi recipe?

How do you spell pierogi? This is the most confusing part?

The spelling can be: pierogi, perogy?

Never mind plural. In Poland pierogi is always served 2 or more so pierogi is the plural.

But it can be pierogis, pierogies and so on….Confusing fun. Share if you know the answer.

And thank you.

Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-your colored egg using rice
Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-your colored egg using rice

Hello my dear readers,

Today is all about kids, Easter projects and Easter eggs.

So, let’s start with our first project.

Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-your colored egg using rice
Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-your colored egg using rice

Dye Easter Eggs With Rice

For this project you need only 2 ingredients:

  • eggs (boiled) – use as many as you want to
  • rice

Instructions

First you will need to boil eggs and cool them for a few minutes.

IMPORTANT! You want eggs to be warmer because the color will stick better.

How to prepare colored rice?

Pour 1/2 cup of rice in a bag #1 and squeeze a liberal amount of red food coloring into it.

Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-ad your egg into a bag and shake it
Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies-ad your egg into a bag and shake it

Shake the rice so it is coated with red color.

If you have 4 kids, let each kid make their own bag with their favorite colors.

So, the bag 2 can be with blue color, bag 3 with pink color, bag 4 with green color and so on.

You can make as many as you want to. Or you can use just one color. It is your choice.

After you made bag 1 with red color, start adding 1 boiled and warm egg into the bag.

Close the bag and shake the egg for 30 to 45 seconds.

Check the egg. So pretty…you just made the most beautiful Easter eggs. Ever.

IMPORTANT: Rice will dry very quickly so keep adding more color into the bag.

Keep going until you used all cooked eggs.

Put the gloves on and let’s start Picasso.

Start adding your favorite color. There is no rules.

Just play with your favorite colors. Add a little red, blue, yellow, pink or any color you

have and love. (I was using toothpick to add food color)

Repeat the same process for all other eggs.

Now, pour your remaining vinegar / water mixture into empty spray bottle.

Easter Project 3 – How to naturally dye eggs using onions

Happy Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies - Enjoy your homemade dyed eggs
Happy Easter from the best food blog 5starcookies – Enjoy your homemade dyed eggs

Ingredients:

Onion Skin – 3 cups but you can use less or more. There is no rules really. You can’t make mistake with amount of onions.

Eggs – I used 30 organic eggs. They can be white or brown.

What else do you need?

Vinegar, Water, Nylon Stocking or pantyhose (buy in $ Store)

Important: You need to buy nylon stocking or pantyhose. (See the picture below.)

Instructions:

Place the egg inside of pantyhose and tied secure knot.

Add another egg into the same pantyhose.

Tie and secure. Now you have two eggs tied together and being next to each other

Tell them to be friends and get along. It is important in life to be a social being…

Add another egg and keep going until you have 5 or 6 eggs together inside of that one pantyhose. See the picture below.

Use another pantyhose and repeat all steps above. So, if you want to dye 30 eggs you will need 5 pantyhose.

(5×6=30)…If you don’t understand math, just keep going until you have all your eggs inside of the pantyhose.

The next step is to find your saucepan which is full of the onion skins.

Now, place 12 eggs (2 pantyhose) into a saucepan with the onion skin. Cover the eggs with the onion skin.

Just imagine you are protecting eggs from the enemy.

Then ADD WATER and 1 TBS of white vinegar. So, how many cups of water do you need to use?

There is no really a straight answer to this question and I will answer like a politician.

Use as many as you need to cover all eggs and onion skins.

Important:

When water starts to boil, boil for 25 to 30 minutes on medium temperature.

Take eggs out of the pot.

Gently remove the pantyhose.

Rub them with the olive oil (or bacon).

Enjoy!

The color will be different…It depends how much of the onion skin you used.

So if you are done with fun projects with your kids, what else can you do?

Of course you can READ. Reading is super important for all kids.

Because of that my friend Miranda is suggesting… see below:

Cozy, Crafty and Creative Books For Children

            In these crazy times, more than ever children need literature. They need an escape, to snuggle up and forget the world around them for a little while. I am an Early Childhood Educator with over ten years experience working with children. One of my favourite things to do is read to children and then have a discussion and do an activity based on the book we just read. Not only will it help pass the time and possibly ease some of the anxieties of what’s going on in the world around them it, they may learn some new vocabulary, gain new interests, not to mention it is a wonderful time to bond with your child.

Crafty Llama by Mike Kerr is a sweet book all about friendship and being creative. Llama has the whole day ahead of her and wants to do something creative with it. She begins to knit things for all of her friends and her friends also get creative with their own crafting mediums. Her friend Beaver however, would like to make something useful. Enjoy reading this book and seeing what all the cute creatures get up to making and what they use it for.

Buy the book

Crafty Suggestion or Kids Projects

After I read this book to the children at my centre, I provided them with some scrap yarn and glue and asked them to draw a simple picture of anything they want then either outline the picture with the yarn or fill it in, let them be creative and use their own imagination. I favour process arts and crafts over product. Let the children go to town and do their own thing. The end result may surprise and delight you and your child. 

BTW, before I say bye to you, I think you need a drink.

So, how about…
