Pistachio-Sauerkraut Salad, Low Carb Diabetic

Ingredients

        14 ounces sauerkraut, rinsed
        1 (1 ounce) package sugar-free instant pistachio pudding
        ½ teaspoon dried grated fresh lemon rind or 2 teaspoons fresh grated fresh lemon rind
        ½ cup coarsely chopped pistachios
        ½ cup coarsely chopped pecans
        ¼ cup dried currants
        2 (1 g) packets Splenda sugar substitute

Directions

    *Drain the sauerkraut and place in a large bowl.
    *Fill the bowl with water and rinse pickling juices from the sauerkraut, then drain using a large strainer (or colander with small holes).
    *Put the sauerkraut back into the bowl, refill it with cool water, and set it aside.
    *Make the pudding according the package directions.
    *When it has begun to set, add the lemon rind.
    *(Rind from lime could be a good addition, as well!) Coarsely chop the pistachios and pecans- a food processor works well for this.
    *Pour the sauerkraut into the strainer again and drain it well, pressing down on it with the back of a spoon or spatula.
    *In a large bowl mix the rinsed/drained sauerkraut with the pudding, nuts, currants, and Splenda, and stir well.
    *Pour into a serving container and chill in refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
     Enjoy!
