Sauerkraut Salad Recipe
I love sauerkraut but can't abide eating it hot when the temperature outside is steaming. This salad is cold, crisp cool, sweet tart and it lasts forever.

I'm with you. This would be a nice change of pace for the hot summer months. Thanks for posting.


This I'll try for sure - I have a package of sauerkraut made last fall by a family member and every time I go into the freezer I think, I must use that. Well, now is the time. Thanks for sharing.
