Sauerkraut Salad

This was one of my Mother’s recipes and she would always make it when the family got together for summer barbeques.  I suppose there are always foods that you will associate with people and places and this is one of them for us.  When we make it we refer to it as “Mom’s Sauerkraut Salad”.

Ingredients

  • 1 large jar of wine sauerkraut
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 small green pepper, diced
  • 1 cup celery, sliced thinly

Dressing

  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 1/2 cup olive oil

Directions

  1. Drain sauerkraut and squeeze dry.
  2. Combine with onion, pepper and celery in a large bowl.
  3. Put all the dressing ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil to dissolve sugar, then cool and pour over salad.
  4. Toss to combine and refrigerate for several hours.
