Sauerkraut and Smoked Sausage with Potatoes & Apple
Sauerkraut had never been one of my favorite dishes growing up. But as I have gotten older, I have come to like and appreciate the benefits of it. Especially when making my own and having all those probiotics to help with gut health. I put this dish together for New Years day and it turned out very good. I know it won't be an only New Years day dish. This one will go into my menu of dishes to make quite often. Let me know what y'all think of my version. Have a great day.
