Sauerkraut, Sausage & Potato Stew

Sauerkraut, Sausage & Potato Stew

I have to say I love Sauerkraut! Specially Bubbie’s Brand because it’s naturally fermented and full of probiotics. My mouth literally waters just thinking about it. Would you believe I never thought to cook with it? Well, until now. It may sound odd but stick with me for a minute. There is something pretty amazing how the sourness of the kraut balances out the rest of the ingredients and mellows once cooked.

This stew is perfectly rustic, comforting and it will keep you satisfied but still wanting more because it’s just that delicious. It’s made from simple ingredients but packed with flavor.

1 Jar of Bubbies Sauerkraut

4 Brat Style Vegan Sausages ( I used Beyond Meat)

Hearty sliced Bread

Bubbies Prepared Horseradish

Directions

1. Sauté the Onions until translucent
