Breakfast Reuben SandwichThis was a revelation for The Goddess.  Who would have thought this would be such a winning combination?  I’ve been reveling in leftover Oma’s Sauerkraut with Apple, Onion and Bacon and have I been enjoying it.  In that posting, I think I mentioned sautéed sauerkraut with fried eggs over the top for breakfast.  This is just a waltz one step further down that road!  Continue reading →
