I made this because hubby loves rueben sandwiches so I figured he might like this. We both enjoyed it and it was nice to try something different. I really didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised with the results.

I made this simply because it was so unique. I had many people say they liked it, and a couple that thought it was o.k., thus my rating. I didn't try it, so the rating is based on others comments. A very easy recipe to throw together. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe.

This recipe sounded so strange I had to try it. It was much better then I expected but nothing I'd care to make again. If I were to make it again I think I'd use less sauerkraut.

I don't like sauerkraut but my husband does so I bravely made this for him and guess what? It was delicious. We both loved it and I learned to eat something new.

One great soup!!! I made this for Christmas Eve and what a hit it was. Santa stopped by and tried some and almost went out of the roof raving about it! When I made this recipe I sauteed some onions in butter and made a sauce with a little flour to thicken, then I added a little chicken broth and substituted half & half for the milk. Wonderful!!! Thanks for the recipe!
