Classic Reuben Sandwich

This Reuben Sandwich is a classic American hot sandwich loaded with corned beef, sauerkraut and thousand island dressing! It’s super satisfying and super easy to make. 

OK my friends, do your favorite food blogger a favor and make this sandwich!

If you won’t do it for me, do it for yourself. You need this Reuben sandwich. You will thank me.

This sandwich is fantastic! Delicious! Phenomenal!

The ingredients are easy to find, the only problem you might have is finding the sauerkraut, but if you can’t find sauerkraut just use coleslaw. By the way I found sauerkraut at Safeway here in Calgary. So my friends, very simple ingredients, corned beef or pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, thousand island dressing and the bread of your choice. I used this dark rye because I wanted to make this sandwich somewhat healthy. Really, it’s not that bad, and it’s super satisfying, perfect for lunch or dinner.

All kidding aside, this isn’t too bad for you, ingredients are simple and delicious. So let’s eat a Reuben!
