For a richer flavor, use sour cream instead of heavy cream in the mashed potatoes. Feel free to experiment with different types of kielbasa, such as smoked or garlic varieties. A sprinkle of caraway seeds over the sauerkraut before baking adds an authentic touch. This bake is also delicious with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh dill after baking.

Oct 27, 2024I used regular kielbasa instead of turkey, and it was delicious! Next time I might add some diced onions for more depth.

Oct 10, 2024My sauerkraut was extra sour, so I added a teaspoon of sugar to balance it out. Worked like a charm!

Oct 6, 2024This recipe is very forgiving. I didn't have heavy cream, so I used milk and it still turned out great.
