Saurkraut Salad

I made my Aunt Rita's Sauerkraut Salad last week and thought you folks may like it.

1- 2 1/2 can sauerkraut... Rinsed
1/2 cup chopped carrots
1/2 cup " celery
1/2 cup " onions
1/2 cup " green pepper
Mix together.

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup white vinegar.

Bring vinegar and sugar to a boil to dissolve sugar then let cool.
Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil.
Pour over above ingredients, mix thoroughly and let stand in refer at least overnight.

When we used to have a family cook-out Aunt Rita would always ask what she could bring. I'd tell her she didn't need to bring anything, but, her kraut salad would be appreciated.
  • Sauerkraut Salad is sooo good and it keeps forever in the fridge! If there is any left to put in the fridge!
  • Another thanks on this end. Never had kraut in a salad yet am sure the man will appreciate a new way of having it served.
  • I love sauerkraut salad!

    Never added oil though. I like adding in some dill weed and hold the celery, myself.

    Note: A No. 2 1/2 can is around 28 oz, you could add two smaller cans and should be fine. Adjust sugar and vinegar if you like.
