Fennel Sauerkraut with Turkey Sausage & Potatoes

Inspired by the Alsatian classic choucroute garni, this comforting one-pot meal takes a shortcut with already-cooked potatoes (look in the refrigerated section of the produce and/or dairy department of the market) and preshredded cabbage. Serve with additional mustard.

Apple, Sauerkraut & Cheddar Quesadillas

This combination may seem unusual—until you try it. The sweet-tartness of the apple, creaminess of the cheese and bite of the sauerkraut work together beautifully in this easy hot sandwich. Serve with oven-roasted potatoes or a green salad.

Turkey Pastrami Sandwich

If you’re taking this sandwich to go, line one piece of bread with the pastrami and the other with Swiss cheese and tuck the sauerkraut and apple in the middle to keep the bread from becoming soggy.

Chicken Sausage with Potatoes & Sauerkraut

Here’s our weeknight version of choucroute garni, “dressed sauerkraut,” made with chicken sausage. The flavor of the dish will vary depending on what type of chicken sausage you choose. We like the taste of roasted garlic sausage or sweet apple sausage in this recipe. And although any type of sauerkraut can be used, we prefer the crisp texture of refrigerated kraut over canned. Serve with roasted carrots and some mustard to spread on the sausage.

Potato-Cheese Pierogi with Sauerkraut

Potatoes mashed with sautéed onions and sauerkraut makes a flavorful filling in these yummy pierogi. We used whole-wheat pastry flour for added fiber and substituted extra-virgin olive oil for margarine or butter. Pierogi freeze beautifully, so make a large batch if you like.

» Sauerkraut & Sausage Casserole

Make a delicious meal with our healthy sauerkraut recipes.

Sauerkraut—or "sour cabbage"—has a crisp texture and bite that complements many dishes, in particular kielbasa, pierogi, pastrami and more Polish, French and Russian recipes. In our healthy sauerkraut recipes, we prefer using refrigerated sauerkraut over canned kraut for its crispness. Try our Sauerkraut & Sausage Casserole—full of sauerkraut, apples and kielbasa—for a hearty sauerkraut recipe or our Turkey Pastrami Sandwich for a traditional sauerkraut recipe.
