As you can see I’m trying this words over picture thing again and unlike the last one it’s not a total fail, not at all perfect or exactly as I want it but for a techno challenged girl like myself, it’s some decent progress.
Now on to discuss this recipe!
Fun Fact: I was born in Germany.
My parents spent the beginning years of their marriage and my older brothers life in Germany, I on the other hand spent very little time in the country and moved back to the states right before my 1st birthday.
However I have some Germany cuisine tendencies which include my meat & potato cravings, plus the insistent need for gummy bears (original and best from Germany)!
Mama was a new wife and getting the hang of cooking and preparing meals so she picked up a lot of her technique and habits from her surroundings which were German culture, some of those things being passed down to me, I wanted to share one of my favorite takes on the bratwurst!
This recipe is packed with fruits and veggies which makes it guilt free (for me), eat it on a whole wheat bun and you have a well-rounded meal…I think… (disclaimer: I only pretend to be a nutritionist)
Plus its super simple and not at all time-consuming, which makes it perfect for those busy work-weeks!
This recipe is just a piece of all the delicious and hearty foods Germany has to offer, plus I just love Bratwurst
