Ingredients
  

  • 1 cups mayonnaise
  • 1 cups Thousand Island salad dressing
  • 32 ounces sauerkraut drained
  • 1 pounds corned beef shredded (The stuff you buy in a can is already shredded. If using fresh, you will have to shred it yourself or chop it up into small pieces.)
  • 1 pounds egg noodles
  • 16 ounces Swiss cheese sliced or shredded
  • 1 loaf rye bread cut into cubes

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Combine mayonnaise and Thousand Island in a small bowl, set aside.
  • Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain.
  • Stir together sauerkraut, corned beef, and noodles. Add dressing mixture, mix well.
  • Spray a 9x13 casserole dish with cooking spray. Add corned beef mixture into a 9x13 baking dish, smooth the top. Cover with bread cubes and Swiss cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30-40 minutes, until cheese is melted and mixture is heated through.
  • Remove foil. Broil for 2-3 minutes to toast the bread and brown the cheese.

Notes

Your ingredients matter. I like reubens the way my mom always made them which was using canned corned beef and canned sauerkraut (either home canned or bought in a can at the grocery store). Some people swear by sliced corned beef and bagged sauerkraut. Which you choose will dramatically alter the taste and texture of your finished casserole, so choose carefully. And, if you make this dish and don't like it, you could always go back and try the opposite ingredients and see if you like it better that way.
