Reuben Crescent Sandwich Bake

If you love Reuben’s as much as I do, you will absolutely love this Reuben bake! The only thing I don’t care for in a typical Reuben sandwich is how greasy the bread can be (at least when you order it from a restaurant). However, with this, no oily, greasy mess. Just the delicious taste of a crescent roll —

Before I jump into the recipe, I want to first apologize that I haven’t been able to post any new recipes the last few weeks. I actually have been traveling quite a bit for my job. Even though I love trying new restaurants in the different cities I travel to, I definitely miss being in the kitchen. I think my husband is missing me in the kitchen even more. When I am gone, his dinners typically consist of pizza, sandwiches, or even a bowl of cereal. Often on work days, I am always looking for quick and easy recipes. This is why this dish was one of my favs!

Now back to the recipe details….

You can easily use leftover sliced corned beef or even deli corned beef for this recipe. At my local grocery store, they carry a fully cooked and sliced container of corned beef. They also have pastrami in a similar package too (which I have tried and is pretty tasty as well).

The brand is: Stoneridge Ranch Corned Beef. See photo. Full Retail: $8.99 for 16 oz. (Of course, I waited till it went on sale to get it even cheaper!)

You can make this dish in under 30 minutes!

Tastes great as leftovers! Highly recommend!!!
