Sauerkraut Lovers Salad
6 lbs. sauerkraut, rinsed and drained well (the bagged kraut is
recommended)
2 cup chopped celery
1 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cup shredded carrots
3 small cans button mushrooms, drained
1 Tbsp Garlic powder
3 cup vinegar
1 1/4 cup Wesson oil
3 cup sugar ( a little less is ok)
2 tsp. Red pepper flakes (opt.)
Prepare all veggies and mix in a large pot. (i use a roaster) in a large
saucepan, over very low heat, mix together the oil, vinegar, garlic
powder and red pepper flakes. Add sugar slowly, insuring that it is
completely dissolved. Remove form heat. Rinse sauerkraut with cold water.
Drain well.mix well with the vegetables. Pour vinegar mixture over the
vegetables, mix well with a wooden spoon. It will seem a little wet, but
thats okay. Let sit for 20 minutes or so, while you prepare your jars.
Pack in jars using tongs. Add enough of the liquid to each jar to cover
the veggies, to within 1/2 inch of top. Seal jars in boiling water bath
for 15 minutes after water has returned to the boil.
