It’s interesting what makes me think of my best friend who died almost a year ago. Recently I was enjoying bratwurst and sauerkraut, but still had half a jar of sauerkraut remaining. Then it struck me … a memory of a sandwich my friend made for me a few times during our 40 plus year friendship!

I never understood why I never thought of this sandwich on my own because I love Reubens! Maybe it was the fact that I always envisioned sauerkraut dripping all over the place. The trick was uncovered by my friend!

Sandwich laid out with provolone cheese and turkey breast:

Then in the fry pan, heat the sauerkraut so it becomes drier than what was in the jar.

When satisfied with the sauerkraut, put it on your sandwich. So easy…and a delicious sandwich!
