Sauerkraut Salad

Description: Ahh, sauerkraut...one of those things you'd never dreamed you'd grow to like when you were a kid! This is a great, unusual twist on plain old sauerkraut. Fast and easy..great for picnics and barbeques.

Ingredients:

• 1 (1 lb) can sauerkraut, drained but not rinsed
• 1 cup celery, chopped fine
• 1/2 cup green pepper, chopped fine
• 2 tablespoons onions, chopped fine
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1/3 cup salad oil
• 1/3 cup cider (I use white) or 1/3 cup white vinegar (I use white)

Steps:

1. Mix chopped vegetables with sauerkraut.
2. Heat sugar, oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper over low heat just until sugar dissolves.
3. Cool and pour over vegetables.
4. Chill overnight.
