Mini-Reuben Sandwiches
Dijon mustard Thousand Island Dressing (optional) 1 loaf sliced party rye bread 1 1-lb can sauerkraut, well-drained and pressed between paper towels until dry as possible. sliced corned beef (I actually do use the good stuff - either make it myself or buy it from good deli) 3 oz Swiss cheese slices
(If you can’t find party rye, cut slices of regular rye into quarters)
Pre-heat oven to 400ยบ.
Place bread slices in single layer on baking sheet and put in oven to partially toast. Remove and spread each with Dijon mustard. (Add a small dollop of 1000 Island Dressing, too, if you like, but don’t leave out that Dijon. I’ve tried it without it and just believe me it is NOT AS GOOD.) Top with 1 heaping tsp sauerkraut, several small slices corned beef, one strip of swiss cheese.
Put back in oven and bake until cheese melts. Serve immediately.
This makes about 26 mini-Reubens, and they are very popular and easy to eat so be sure you have enough for everyone.
