Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices Rye bread
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 pound Cooked corned beef
- 2 cups Sauerkraut
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 0.75 cup Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Cut the rye bread into 1-inch cubes. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bread cubes and toss them to coat evenly. Toast until just golden, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
Roughly chop the cooked corned beef into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the Thousand Island dressing, Dijon mustard, heavy cream, and garlic powder until thoroughly combined. If desired, stir in caraway seeds for additional flavor.
Spread half of the toasted rye bread evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Layer half of the corned beef over the bread cubes, followed by 1 cup of sauerkraut and 4 slices of Swiss cheese.
Drizzle half of the dressing mixture over the cheese layer.
Repeat the layers: remaining bread cubes, corned beef, remaining sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese. Finish by drizzling the rest of the dressing on top.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and drizzle it over the top layer of the casserole.
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the layers to set. Serve warm and enjoy the ultimate comfort food!
