Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb sliced deli corned beef
4 -6 ounces swiss cheese
16 ounces sauerkraut
4 tablespoons low-carb thousand island dressing (I buy low-carb brands)
4 tablespoons sugar-free mayonnaise
1 tablespoon dill relish (or 1 tablespoon splenda sweetened relish)

Steps:

  • In a large casserole dish sprayed with PAM, layer slices of corned beef (the thin sliced - not chipped - works best). Kind of scrunch them up with an "uneven approach" so it's not a slab of corned beef.
  • Drain saurkraut of 1/2 its juice and lay atop corned beef (if you like the sweeter variety of kraut, thoroughly rinse off canned/jarred juice and replace with a bit of cool water -- toss 1/2 tsp Brown Sugar Twin or Splenda into it before adding to the casserole dish.) Top with swiss cheese layer and bake at 350?F for 15 minutes or until cheese is melty but not liquidy.
  • While dish is baking, in separate bowl mix Thousand Island Dressing, Mayonnaise, and Relish.
  • Remove casserole dish from oven, slice in 4 serving-size squares and top with dollops of dressing mixture.

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons taco seasoning
1 (16 ounce) package frozen riced cauliflower, thawed and drained
2 large eggs
3 tablespoons heavy cream
½ cup shredded pepper Jack cheese, divided
½ medium zucchini, sliced
½ medium yellow squash, sliced
2 medium Roma tomatoes, sliced and drained
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 slices lime
4 sprigs cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil a 7x10-inch, 2-quart baking dish.
  • Warm 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet until it shimmers. Add onion and taco seasoning; cook and stir until onion begins to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in riced cauliflower. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  • Stir together eggs and cream in a bowl until well blended; pour over the cauliflower mixture and gently work it in until it surrounds the cauliflower mixture. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated pepper Jack cheese on top.
  • Place alternating slices of zucchini, yellow squash, and tomato on top of the cheese layer. Drizzle vegetables with remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup cheese on top of the vegetables and bake for 10 more minutes. Garnish with lime and cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of cheeses. The recipe calls for cheddar and Swiss cheese, but you can also use mozzarella, Gruyère, or Parmesan. Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. The vegetables should be tender but still have a little bit of crunch. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
  • Use a good-quality rye bread. The bread is an important part of the casserole, so make sure you use a good-quality rye bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the other ingredients.
  • Serve the casserole hot. The casserole is best served hot out of the oven. You can also make it ahead of time and reheat it before serving.

Conclusion:

This low-carb Reuben casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight. It is packed with flavor and is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a low-carb meal that is both delicious and satisfying, give this casserole a try.
