MINI REUBENS

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Beef     Appetizer     Bake     Cocktail Party     Quick & Easy     Healthy

Yield 36 snacks

Number Of Ingredients 6

36 slices of party rye bread
Thousand Island dressing
1 (12 oz.) can corn beef
1 (16 oz.) can sauerkraut, drained
8 oz. processed Swiss cheese, shredded
Some caraway seed, if desired

Steps:

  • Prepare sauerkraut in thousand island dressing, keep refrigerated. When ready to use, ( If it is too runny) drain some of the liquid. Add Swiss cheese and caraway seed and mix well. Spread each piece of snack rye bread with a little of the thousand island dressing. Break up the corn beef and place on top so the bread is covered. Then cover with shredded Swiss Cheese. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in a 375 degree oven for 6-10 min. or until cheese melts and appetizers are heated. The Reubens can be made ahead of time, placed on the cookie sheet and refrigerated. Heat when you are ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Ensure you use thinly sliced corned beef, or slice it thinly yourself. This helps ensure the meat is tender and easy to eat in the sandwich.
  • Rye bread is the traditional choice for a Reuben sandwich, but you can use other types of bread if you prefer. Just make sure the bread is sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings.
  • Thousand Island dressing is the classic choice for a Reuben dressing, but you can use other dressings if you prefer. Russian dressing or a horseradish-based dressing are both good options.
  • Sauerkraut can be a polarizing ingredient, so feel free to omit it if you're not a fan. If you do use it, make sure to drain it well before adding it to the sandwich.
  • If you're making the sandwiches ahead of time, assemble them without the dressing and sauerkraut. Add those just before serving.
  • For extra flavor, you can grill or pan-fry the sandwiches until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
