Description

A healthier twist on the classic Reuben sandwich, baked with crescent roll dough for a crispy, satisfying meal.


Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp caraway seeds (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  3. Layer corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese over the dough.
  4. Drizzle with Thousand Island dressing.
