This was very good. I wasn't sure how the tomato would be, the flavors blended nicely. Instead of doing this in the oven I threw a center cut pork loin roast in the bottom of my slow cooker & threw the sauerkraut mixture on top and let it cook all day. I drained/rinsed the kraut, I used brown sugar instead of white and cut back some on the amount. The bacon just kind of cooks into the sauerkraut and pretty much disappeared. I also cut way back on the pepper. I will make again.

This didn't turn out very good for me. I followed exactly, except I cooked the bacon first as I wasn't sure if it should be or not. It turned out quite dry. Maybe the uncooked bacon would have added some fat to the dish. I'd try again.

We had this tonight with our meal and loved it! I only changed the pepper amount. I just sprinkled a little bit and stirred it in, the hubby is sensitive to it!

None of the six members of my family cared for this.

I like my sauerkraut sour and this made it sweet. It just wasn't for me but my husband who is Dutch and grew up with sauerkraut in all kinds of ways loved it so I guess it's up to the individual.

This was OK. I used kielbasa browned and drained instead of bacon. I enjoyed the sweet/sour flavor.

Terrible - to strong on the pepper and I put less than the ingredients

This was great!! I was looking for a sauerkraut recipe for New Year's and will definitely be making this again. I did like some of the other reviewers did and used real bacon bits ( I think it may save some calories)and reduced the black pepper. I used Splenda instead of sugar and reduced the calories considerably. The taste was fantastic. I did drain the kraut as some of the others had suggested but may leave a little bit in the next time. My husband commented that it looked a little different when I was serving it(because of the tomatoes) but was wowed when he tasted it!!!

This was a good recipe but a little too sweet even for me. I love sweet and savory dishes- so next time I will at least half the sugar if not more. I can't eat tomatoes so I left them out and added chopped onion and polska kielbasa. Other than being a little too sweet- it cooked well and there was not a hint of bitterness to the kraut. I'll make it again for an easy dinner.

This casserole was a New Year's Day hit with our family After reading all the pepper cautions, I opted for a 1/2 tsp and this was perfect. I also did 1/4 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar which was also perfect. Used diced tomatoes and packaged read bacon bits for convenience. My husband put the leftovers on a hot dog the next day and loved it. Thanks for a great recipe to use on New Year's Day meals.
