This looks great!!


Hi there! I made this mixture up last night and let it chill overnight to finish tonight. They are incredible and delicious! I used Bavarian sauerkraut to get the caraway punch. I also added 2 diced (seeded and ribbed) jalapenos and 1/4 diced red bell pepper to the saute pan with the sausage and onions. They rock! I love that they are baked as opposed to frying - so much easier. Great recipe - thanks so much! I'll be making these regularly. Wow.


These were excellent! My family all loved them. I liked the fact that they weren't fried. Thanks for the great recipe!!
