More sauerkraut...

German Sundae
First the potatoes...
I STILL had some of that jar of sauerkraut left, along with three small boiled potatoes I had reserved from making the German Potato Salad.  As I won't be able to attend the Ohio Sauerkraut Festival in my hometown of Waynesville this year, I thought I would recreate one of my favorite eats, one that I get every year that I go, the German Sundae.  This dish is comprised of (very, very) buttery roasted potato slices topped with sauerkraut, shredded cheese, bacon bits, sour cream, and an olive on top.  I know, you're thinking that that sounds gross, but really, it is delicious and I wouldn't lie to you about that!

then the kraut...
Since I was in charge this go around, I thought I would construct a better for me "Sundae" while I was at it.  I took the three small red potatoes (warmed) and broke them up into chunks; I used these as the bottom layer, like the original, but omitted the (ton of) butter.  On top of this I layered my leftover kraut (warmed), and topped that with a handful of 2% extra sharp cheddar cheese shreds, a sprinkling of (real) bacon bits, a dollop of fat free sour cream, and a nice ripe olive...yum, yum, yum.  Be adventurous and the next time you have a bit of leftover kraut, be sure to give this a try ;-D
then every thing else and eat it up yum...
