Sauerkraut casserole with sun-dried tomatoes and seitan

Sauerkraut and potatoes go so nicely together. This is very quick and easy to make and quite satisfying on a cold winter’s day.

Sauerkraut casserole with sundried tomatoes and seitan
Directions:

  1. Empty the can of sauerkraut into an ovenproof baking dish.
  2. Separate it a bit with a fork so that it is spread all over the dish.
  3. Open the frozen potatoes and mix well into the sauerkraut.
  4. Cut the sun dried tomatoes and seitan or tempeh into bite sized pieces and mix into the sauerkraut potato mixture.
  5. Pour the soy cream or soy milk into a bowl and grate most of the soy cheese into the milk.
  6. Add cayenne and black pepper to the milk.
  7. Pour the milk and spices over the sauerkraut/potato mixture and mix well.
  8. Grate the last little bit of soy cheese on top of the mixture and garnish with slices of the 2nd apple.
  9. Place in the oven to bake.
  10. Bake for 25-30 minutes on a medium oven or until crispy golden brown.

We find this meal tastes nice with a whole wheat baguette and a fresh salad.

    Sounds so Amrican! ;) And very comforting too… Can you find frozen hash browns easily in The Netherlands?

    “garnish with slices of the 2nd apple.”

    I’m lost. Where’s the first one? Where are apples in the list of ingredients? :( Heeeelp! ;)

    Hi Mitsuko,
    and thank you for finding that. This is a combination of 2 of my recipes. Yes indeed, I always peel and cut up 1 apple and mix into sauerkraut, kind of to offset the sourness. The 2nd would be optional, to grate along with the cheese and put on top. Thanks again, I will add the apple into the ingredient list.

    Seems lovely! I cannot eat garlic, but this looks like a wonderful spicy recipe that doesn’t need it. Will try it out asap and let you know how it turned out!
