Gluten Free Reuben Sandwich

Its now the day after St/ Patricks day. You have half a corned beef brisket left over. What are you to do?

Make a Reuben sandwich!

Obviously, you can't make a real, rye bread and swiss cheese sandwich, but you can still have a reubanesque concoction that will satisfy your craving and use up your leftovers.

To start, you need to slice up your beef real thin.

Like so:

Next you'll butter up the outsides of some bread, and sauce up the inside: homemade thousand island dressing on one side, dairy free cheese on the other. ( I used goat cheese chevre, but any kind of cheese alternative you like will work) Add the beef slices, and some sauerkraut. 

Place entire concoction on a griddle (med heat) and warm until cheese is melted, and beef is warmed.

Thats it! Now its time to eat it up!

Shopping list for sandwich:

2 Tblsp White Vinegar

1 Tblsp  Sugar

1 Tblsp  Sweet Pickle Relish (get corn syrup free!)

1/4 tsp Onion Powder

1/8 tsp  black pepper

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix. Allow to settle in the refrigerator for at least an hour, before use.

*I made this recipe in half, as I will not use this dressing for any other purpose after this sandwich.

Enjoy!
