PASTRAMI-REUBEN CASSEROLE

Pastrami-Reuben Casserole image

If you love reubens then this is for you! Thinly sliced leftover roast beef or steak may use in place of pastrami. You may double all amounts and make two layers if desired. Don't be shy with the dressing, sauerkraut and cheese--use as much as you want--the amounts stated are only a guideline, just make certain to use as much bread cubes as needed to cover the bottom of the baking dish. Place the cubes in the dish before baking just to be sure. Toasting the bread cubes prevents the bread from becoming soggy. You may skip this step if you wish, but the sauerkraut will need to to hand-squeezed to remove as much liquid as possible :)
