Aunt Pat’s Lazy Pierogi
A great meal on a cool, fall day!
1 (2 lb) jar sauerkraut with caraway seeds
1 cup butter, melted (I cut this to 1/2 cup and thought it was just as good)
1 large onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. dried parsley
2 T. packed brown sugar
black pepper
1 1 lb. bag of Kluski noodles
Rinse sauerkraut under cold water and drain well. Melt butter in Dutch oven. Brown onion lightly, add sauerkraut, parsley, brown sugar and pepper to taste. Cook over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, boil noodles according to package directions. Drain and add to sauerkraut mixture. Mix well. Spoon into ovenproof casserole dish. Cover and bake in preheated 350 oven for 20 – 30 minutes.
Note – To make a full meal, stir in 1 lb. smoked polish sausage – sliced thin. (I add the skinless sausage). Serves 6-8
Yum!

Born in the small, historical town of Vincennes, Indiana, Jamie is the oldest of five children. When she was six, her parents accepted Christ as their Savior, which changed everything. Excited about Jesus, her dad decided to take a giant leap of faith and start a church. Some of her favorite memories are the road trips she used to take with her dad, driving to home Bible studies across southern Indiana where Jim would preach. After a night of teaching and ministry, they would drive home and talk of things beyond earth’s bounds - creation and the fall, God and Jesus and the rapture, the earthly walk compared to the spiritual walk, and how we are born for more than what we can see or touch. The highlight of those nights was stopping at a truck stop where her dad would spend a little of the offering basket on two slices of pie and a couple of Cokes. Nothing ever felt so special as a middle of the night slice of pie with her dad. As Jamie grew closer to God and developed her own relationship with Him, she discovered a heart welling with songs and poetry.
