Reuben Melt Sandwich

... and other assorted leftovers.

If you're Irish, or a fan of Irish food at least once a year, you may be like me and have an overabundance of leftovers.

Corned beef.

Cabbage.

Colcannon.

The Guinness is gone though.  Surprise, surprise...

Anyway,  here are a few recipes I thought I would share that are perfect for leftovers.  Some are old, some are new, but all are easy and delicious.

Not only that, they are also great meals to serve your non-Irish friends.  They are just Americanized enough to satisfy any set of taste buds!





Reuben Melt Sandwich


4 slices rye or pumpernickel bread
1 cup corned beef
2 slices swiss cheese
1/3 cup drained sauerkraut or cabbage
1/4 cup Thousand Islands dressing
2 tbsp butter




Coat the inside of each slice with TI Dressing.

On the bottom slice, layer sauerkraut, corned beef and cheese.  Finish with top slice.

Fry in a pan in butter over medium heat until cheese has completely melted and the bread is crispy.
