OVEN-GRILLED REUBEN SANDWICHES
For a great homemade Reuben sandwich, make a quick "sauerkraut" by simmering bagged coleslaw with vinegar and sugar, and replace overly sweet Russian dressing with a simple blend of mayonnaise and Dijon mustard. Oven-grilling allows you to cook the sandwiches all at once (and without turning them) rather than cooking them in batches on the stovetop.
