Reuben Recipe | Tray of Open Faced Mini Reubens | Cait Straight Up

Swiss cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat Swiss cheese

💰Cheaper: provolone

Provolone is often less expensive while maintaining similar flavor.

Russian dressing

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt dressing

💰Cheaper: mayonnaise + ketchup

Greek yogurt reduces calories while providing creaminess.

corned beef

🥗Healthier: turkey pastrami

💰Cheaper: canned corned beef

Turkey pastrami is lower in fat.

rye bread

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: white bread

Whole grain bread adds fiber.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place slices of rye bread on a cookie sheet.

Spread a decent amount of Ken's Russian dressing on each slice of bread, ensuring it is even but not too much to make it soggy.

Add two pickles on the bottom of each slice of bread.

Fluff up the shaved corned beef and place a medium slice on top of the pickles on each slice of bread.

Add a nice helping of sauerkraut on top of the corned beef.

Cut Swiss cheese into triangles and place one triangle on each open-faced sandwich.

Place the sandwiches in the oven for about 15 minutes, keeping an eye on them until the cheese is melting nicely.

Once out of the oven, add another round of pickles on top of the melted cheese.

Serve and enjoy the mini Reubens.
