Sausage & Tangy Kraut (Printable Version)

Crockpot meal mixing savory sausage, tangy sauerkraut, and creamy potatoes for an easy and filling dinner.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 pound Polish sausage, chopped into pieces
02 - 2 cans (14 ounces each) sauerkraut, with the juice
03 - 5 to 6 potatoes, large chunks after peeling
04 - 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
05 - 1 bay leaf
06 - 1 cup of water
07 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Start by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into big chunks. Gather up everything else you'll need.
02 - Pour the sauerkraut into your cooker. Add the chopped potatoes on top, followed by a sprinkle of caraway seeds, the bay leaf, a dash of pepper, and the water.
03 - Place the sausage pieces across the top. As it cooks, it'll seep flavor into everything below!
04 - Cover it up and let it simmer away. Choose 4 hours on high or let it take its time for 6 hours on low. Check to see if the potatoes are soft enough when it's done!
05 - Give it a quick taste in the end. Want more spice? Maybe toss in some extra black pepper or a touch of paprika.
06 - Be sure to take out the bay leaf (trust me, you don't want that in your bowl). Serve up the stew in bowls and enjoy it while it's warm!

# Additional Notes:

01 - This easy-to-make Polish comfort dish is perfect for chilly evenings.
02 - Looking for a healthier twist? Try using turkey or chicken sausage instead!
