Comfort Food Recipe: Healthy Perogies with a No-Fat Twist!

After a couple weeks of warmer than usual weather in Toronto, the temperature dipped to 5 degrees yesterday. Cold weather always makes me crave comfort food, a bottle of wine and a hot bath.

I have a number of favourite comfort foods like mac and cheese, french fries, hamburgers, but yesterday I was craving perogies. Who doesn't love potato dumplings packed with cheese and onion, fried until golden brown, topped with sour cream, butter, fried onions and bacon. That is what I love and that is what I made except I substituted the sour cream for thick and heavenly Greek yogurt.

To make the yogurt extra special, I added typical Eastern European flavours to enhance the taste of the perogies. I added chopped dill, one clove of garlic and a sprinkle of paprika. Perfection!

Dill and Garlic Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup of Greek yogurt
1/4 cup of finely chopped dill
1 clove crushed garlic
1 tsp paprika 

Mix the first 3 ingredients together, sprinkle with paprika then serve with perogies.
