Sometimes you just need an easy dinner with these crazy busy nights we have. I love doing a panini because it makes me feel like I cooked something haha. I would love to make this again in the Fall with a nice big bowl of soup.
Reuben Panini
(Adapted from Katie’s Cucina)
2 slices of Rye bread
1 tbsp butter, softened
2 tbsp Russian sauce
2 thick slices of leftover Corned Beef
1/4 cup drained sauerkraut
2 slices of Swiss cheese
1 pickle
Preheat panini press to high heat.
While panini press is heating up spread one tablespoon of softened butter on the outside pieces of the rye bread. Then spread one tablespoon of Russian Sauce on each side of the rye bread. Place Corned Beef on top of one side of bread followed by drained sauerkraut, and top with two slices of Swiss Cheese. Place second piece of bread on top of the sandwich (Russian sauce side down, buttered side up).
Place the sandwich on the panini press and cook for 5 minutes or until the panini is golden brown and cheese has melted. Serve with a pickle and additional Russian sauce if desired.
