Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices corned beef or pastrami
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup sauerkraut drained and patted dry
  • 1/4 cup Thousand Island dressing
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard optional
  • 1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds optional for extra flavor
  • Toothpicks for securing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Assemble Roll Ups: Lay out the slices of corned beef on a flat surface. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each slice of beef.
  • Add Sauerkraut and Dressing: Add about 1 tablespoon of sauerkraut on top of the cheese. Drizzle a small amount of Thousand Island dressing over the sauerkraut. If using Dijon mustard or caraway seeds, add them now for extra flavor.
  • Roll and Secure: Carefully roll up each slice tightly and secure with a toothpick to hold the roll in place.
  • Bake: Place the roll ups on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the roll ups are heated through.
  • Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Choose Quality Corned Beef: Opt for thinly sliced, high-quality corned beef or pastrami for the best flavor and texture.
  • Drain the Sauerkraut Well: To prevent soggy roll ups, ensure that the sauerkraut is well-drained and patted dry before adding it to the roll.
  • Use Low-Carb Dressing: If following a strict keto diet, be sure to use a sugar-free Thousand Island dressing or make your own.
  • Add a Crispy Finish: For an extra crunch, broil the roll ups for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking.
  • Make It Ahead: These roll ups can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before serving, making them perfect for parties or meal prep.
