Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Butter one side of each slice of rye bread and cut them into cubes. Set aside.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
Spread the sauerkraut evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.
Layer the sliced corned beef over the sauerkraut, ensuring each slice slightly overlaps.
Drizzle the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the corned beef layer.
Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded Swiss cheese over the dressing layer.
Scatter the cubed rye bread across the top to form a uniform layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded Swiss cheese over the bread cubes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden and toasty and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with pickles for an extra tangy twist.
