Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Corned beef
- 2 cups Sauerkraut, drained and squeezed dry
- 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
- 0.25 cup Chopped dill pickles
- 1 cup Rye breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted (if using breadcrumbs)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.
Chop the corned beef into bite-sized pieces and spread it evenly across the bottom of the casserole dish.
Layer the drained and dried sauerkraut on top of the corned beef, spreading it out evenly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and caraway seeds (if using). Mix until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the chopped dill pickles to the mixture and then spread it evenly over the sauerkraut layer.
Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the casserole.
If using rye breadcrumbs, combine them with the melted butter in a small bowl and sprinkle the mixture over the cheese.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is lightly browned.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley or serve with a side of low-carb rye crackers.
