Bavarian Sausage Feast: Sunday, October 6, 2024

Here’s a meal in honor of “Oktoberfest.” You’ll be enjoying traditional Bavarian flavors of Bratwurst, Hot Potato Salad, and Rotkohl (German red cabbage with apples and onions). I’m suggesting a couple of my favorite plant-based sausages for tonight’s meal: “Field Roast Brats” and “Beyond Meat Brats”. All sausages (animal or plant-based) are rich, but you won’t consume saturated fat when eating plant-based products.

My German Grandma kept a crockery pot with pickled cucumber and onion in the pantry. It was used as a salad or the start of a salad for many meals. Today you’ll prepare a quick version of the pickled cucumber and onion as a garnish. Das alles schmeckt gut!

This AM…

Pull 8 falafel pieces from the freezer and transfer to a plate in the fridge for the day.
