Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound polish Kielbasa, sliced into 1/4 inch circles
1 (12-ounce) jar sauerkraut

4 tablespoons whole grain Dijon mustard

Next, pile on some kielbasa rounds (about 8 Don't Skimp!) then the onion/sauerkraut mixture and then top with a good slice of Gruyere Cheese. Place the pan under the broiler - along with the top of the rolls (facing inside up) to slightly crisp its edges Once cheese has melted, remove from the oven. PAY ATTENTION WHEN IN BROILER. Spread some more mustard/jelly condiment on the inside top of the roll and close the sandwich.
