Sausage Sauerkraut Supper image

With big, tender chunks of sausage, potatoes and carrots, this meal-in-one has old-world flavor that will satisfy the heartiest of appetites. A co-worker often made a big pot of this for our office staff, and it always disappeared in a hurry. -Joalyce Graham of St. Petersburg, Florida
