Cooking Recipes Articel

Here's food for thought: The challenge for many an outdoor chef is exploring options beyond the conventional universe of grilled hot dogs
hamburgers and steaks.

An easy way may be to add zest with robust flavors. For example
instead of a hamburger
consider a Turkey Kraut Burger. The tartness of sauerkraut and Dijon mustard adds a surprising
savory twist to a healthier burger.

The addition of full-bodied flavors via a side dish is another way to bring new life to backyard cuisine. You may care to try the Sweet and Sassy Slaw or Tangy Trio Bean Salad recipes at www.krrrrispkraut.com as an alternative to traditional potato salad or cole slaw.

Sauerkraut
the second most popular hot dog topping according to the trade association Pickle Packers International
earned rave reviews as a healthful food. Recent studies have shown that girls who eat four or more servings of sauerkraut or lightly cooked cabbage a week during adolescence are 72 percent less likely to develop breast cancer as adults. The nutritional and chemical properties of sauerkraut have also proven effective in aiding digestion
lowering cholesterol levels and reducing the risk for developing prostate and colon cancers.
