Reuben Spread with Kneaders Rye Bread

Hot, savory, and packed with flavor. Our gooey, cheesy spread is filled with all of the classic Reuben sandwich ingredients including sauerkraut, corned beef, and of course, thousand island dressing. Complete with Kneaders Rye Bread (we like it toasted) and your guests will scoop out every last drop when this appetizer comes out of the oven! 

Ingredients:

8 ounces of cream cheese, softened

1½ cups of shredded Swiss cheese, divided

½ cup of Thousand Island dressing

4 ounces of chopped corned beef

½ cup of sauerkraut, drained

Instructions:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix together cream cheese, 1 cup of Swiss cheese, dressing, and corned beef.
  2. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Spread cheese mixture in a pie plate. Top with sauerkraut and remaining Swiss cheese.
  3. Bake for 15 minutes or until bubbly around the edges.
  4. Serve with Kneaders Rustic Rye Bread.

Fun Fact: Stories suggest that Rueben’s Delicatessen first created the sandwich for a famous actress in 1914. The sandwich’s origins may be mysterious, but the flavor is well known. This recipe turns the New York classic into a hearty spread.
