This isn't your cafeteria sauerkraut! Sweet apples and carrots transform tangy fermented cabbage into a refreshing, probiotic-packed salad that's ready in 10 minutes and under 200 calories per serving.
Empty your sauerkraut in a colander and drain the juice off.
1 lb Sauerkraut
Peel and grate the carrot. You can also grate the apples if you want, but I prefer to chop them, as they add an extra crunch. Peel and finely cube the onion.
2 carrots , 1 Apple, 1 onion
Combine the sauerkraut, apple, carrot, and raisins in a large bowl and mix. Add the sugar and sunflower oil. Season the salad with sugar and pepper (although the sauerkraut may be salty enough).
Let the salad sit in the fridge for an hour for the flavors to develop. If you find the sauerkraut flavor too strong and sour, you can add a little apple juice to milden the flavor.
3 tablespoon apple juice
Before serving, sprinkle with the chopped chives. Serve this cabbage salad cold or at room temperature.
