Mini Reuben Sandwiches Recipe
These warm and melty Mini Reuben Sandwiches have all the flavors of the classic reuben in a bite-sized appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 loaf cocktail rye bread (these are miniature slices, see notes)
- 1 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 4 ounces thinly sliced cooked corned beef
- 1 cup sauerkraut (drained well)
- 1½ cups shredded Swiss cheese
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Lay the slices of 1 loaf cocktail rye breadrye bread out on two baking sheets. Spread a teaspoon or two of Thousand Island dressing onto each one.
- Top with a thin slice of corned beef, then a small spoonful of sauerkraut, then a sprinkle of shredded Swiss (enough to cover the sauerkraut).
- Preheat broiler to high. Broil for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the appetizers are warm throughout. You can also bake them at 350°F for about 15 minutes.
- Serve warm, topped with chopped fresh parsley for a little pop of color.
Notes
You can use leftover corned beef instead of deli corned beef.
You can swap sliced Swiss cheese for the shredded Swiss. Use half of a slice of Swiss cheese per sandwich (fold it in half to fit).
If you can't find cocktail rye bread, check this list of retailers to see if they sell it near you. If not, use quartered slices of rye sandwich bread instead. Toast it lightly first so it's a bit sturdier.
These sandwiches are best served the day that they are made. If you have leftovers, store them in the fridge and reheat in a 350°F oven or broil until warmed throughout.
