Baked Reuben

By punk

Ingredients

• 1 loaf (12 ounces) French bread, unsliced
• 12 ounces sliced corned beef
• 1 can (14.4 ounces) sauerkraut, well drained
• 1 bottle (8 ounces) Russian or Thousand Island dressing (1 cup)
• 1 package (6 ounce) sliced Swiss cheese

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degree F.

Cut the bread in half lengthwise (horizontally) and slightly hollow out the center of each half by removing the soft center 1/2-inch deep on each side. Spoon each hollowed-out half with 1/4 cup of the dressing.

Place 1/2 of the corned beef on each half of the loaf and spoon another 1/4 cup of the dressing on each half. Evenly top each half with the sauerkraut, followed by half of the cheese. Wrap each half loosely in foil and bake for 20 minutes until the cheese melts. Cut each half into 6 pieces.
