Super easy, fast and delicious Reuben Sandwich Casserole taking help from Pilsbury crescent rolls! Buttery, rich and delicious! Clearly not a traditional Reuben but a fresh spin on it!
Ingredients and Variations
Ingredients: Refrigerated Pillsbury Crescent rolls, cooked corned beef (I use home canned), sauerkraut (I used home canned), Thousand Island style dressing (I make it homemade), thin slices of Swiss cheese, egg, toasted sesame seeds, Kosher salt and garlic powder.
Dressing: Mayo, ketchup, pickle relish, dried onions, garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne and paprika.
Variations: Corned beef deli meat can be used, shredded Swiss can be used as opposed to sliced, onions can be added as well as cooked cabbage if desired, also a grainy mustard can replace dressing if desired. Add some pickled jalapeños for some kick!
