This is a meal that will provide you with all the flavor of the famous Reuben Sandwich, but with a flaky crust rather than the Marble Rye Bread. This great spin on the Classic Reuben Sandwich is actually very easy to make and even easier to eat.
This becomes one of the most satisfying meals for any night during the week. It takes very little time to put it together, and just a short amount of time to bake.
Your family is going to love this spin on the classic sandwich. The wonderful taste of Corned Beef, Sauerkraut and Swiss cheese combine to make your tastebuds jump for joy.
Changing just a couple aspects turns your favorite sandwich into a casserole that everyone is going to love.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Which Cheese is best to use?
Swiss cheese is the cheese most often used. However, I have tried this with Provolone and also Mozzarella. Those two are both good and put a spin of their own on this classic.
Can I store what is left?
You can store the leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Place the casserole into an airtight container or cover it tightly.
Can I freeze the leftovers?
You could and then reheat in the microwave or for a short time in the oven. Be sure to wrap it tightly or place it in an airtight container.
Can I make this in advance?
You can prepare it right up to the baking part. Instead of baking, cover it tightly and place it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Then bakes as directed.
