German Skillet Dinner

I found the basis for this one in the "Good Housekeeping, Menus for a Whole Year," published in 1971, and it has been a favorite of my family since then. I have substituted ground turkey, bratwurst and even sausage for the ground chuck! It's easy and fast. If you are a sauerkraut lover, don't miss this one.

Ingredients:
1 Tblsp. butter or margarine
1 16 oz. can sauerkraut, undrained
2/3 cup uncooked regular white rice
1 medium onion, chopped
1 lb. ground beef chuck (or sausage)
1 1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1 8-oz. can tomato sauce

Directions:
In large skillet, heat butter. Spread the sauerkraut over the butter, then sprinkle with rice and onion.

Top with chuck or sausage, salt, pepper and tomato sauce. Cook covered, over low heat, 25 to 30 minutes.

Prep time: About 20 minutes

Serves 4
