Savory Sauerkraut

Submitted by Hey Jude

"I love this but don't get to have it very often because nobody in my family likes sauerkraut as much as I do. This is so easy and delicious! Adapted from a Sunset cookbook recipe. I sometimes add chopped, cooked bacon to this."

Although I love sauerkraut, I thought by adding the tomatoes it was too acidic. I did not like this recipe at all! Will never make it again.

Very tasty! I did use the bacon grease as recommended. This is a great recipe for jazzing up canned sauerkraut. I'll be making this again; thanx!
