Cooking Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped corned beef, drained sauerkraut, Thousand Island dressing, and Dijon mustard. Mix gently until everything is coated.
- Toss the cubed rye bread with the melted butter until lightly coated.
- Spread half of the buttered bread cubes evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Spoon the corned beef and sauerkraut mixture over the bread layer. Spread it out evenly.
- Sprinkle half of the shredded Swiss cheese over the meat and sauerkraut mixture.
- Top with the remaining buttered bread cubes.
- Sprinkle the remaining Swiss cheese over the top layer of bread.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is lightly golden brown.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
Notes
Drain the sauerkraut thoroughly to prevent the casserole from becoming watery. You can use deli-sliced corned beef and chop it yourself, or buy pre-chopped varieties. For extra flavor, lightly toast the bread cubes before assembling the casserole.
