- 0.5 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 12 pieces Pickle slices

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lightly butter one side of each mini rye bread slice and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, buttered side down.
Cut the pastrami slices into smaller pieces to fit the mini rye bread slices.
Layer each bread slice with a piece of pastrami, a spoonful of sauerkraut, and a slice of Swiss cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the appetizers are baking, spoon the Thousand Island dressing into a small serving bowl or piping bag.
Once baked, remove the appetizers from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter.
Add a dollop of Thousand Island dressing to each appetizer or pipe it artistically on top.
Garnish each appetizer with a pickle slice and a pinch of freshly chopped parsley.
