This reuben inspired sammich is more of a conceptual idea, but it is really delicious. The quantities I've listed are what I used to make 2, and I had just a little bit of filling leftover.

Ingredients

2 servings
  1. A fewslices leftover cooked corned beef - chopped
  2. 1wedge leftover boiled cabbage - chopped
  3. 2 oz(about) freshly shredded swiss cheese
  4. 1/4 cup(again, about lol) thousand island dressing
  5. 4 slicesbread, your choice (all I had on hand was whole wheat)
  6. 2 tbsunsalted butter - softened

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    First you need to get some of the excess moisture out of the cabbage since we'll be adding some with the dressing. Heat a 10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. When hot add corned beef and cabbage. Cook until most of the moisture has evaporated stirring often, just a few minutes.

  2. 2

    Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and let cool about 10 minutes. Stir in shredded swiss and dressing until combined. Rinse and dry skillet and heat over medium-low. While heating spread 1/2 tbs butter on one side of each slice of bread.

  3. 3

    I find it works best to cook one sammich at a time, so place one slice of bread butter side down in skillet. Spoon about half the filling over bread slice in skillet. Top with second slice of bread, butter side up.

  4. 4

    When bottom slice is browned (about 4-5 min) flip, gently press down on top with spatula, cover skillet to ensure everything gets melty while the second side browns (another few minutes).

  5. 5

    Transfer to a plate, let rest a few minutes. Cut to serve if desired. Enjoy!

Cooking is a hobby and a passion of mine. I love cooking and trying new and different things. The best thing about cooking? I get to prepare delicious food for my family and friends that they (almost) always love! Lol.Many of my recipes are experiments in what I could make with what was available at the time. Many are simply my version of classic and/or popular dishes. A few are variations of recipes I have found elsewhere online but adjusted to our tastes. No matter what, though, each of my recipes is tried and tested before posting and I hope you find as much joy in preparing them as I do.
