Type: Meat
Courses: Main Course
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1 lb 454g / 16ozSliced deli-style corned beef
4 oz 113gSwiss cheese - (to 6)
1   Sauerkraut - (16 oz)
4 tablespoons 60mlLow-carb Thousand Island dressing - (see comments)
4 tablespoons 60mlSugarfree mayonnaise
1 tablespoon 15mlDill relish
  = (or Splenda sweetened relish)

Recipe Instructions

In a large casserole dish (or in separate ramekins) sprayed with PAM, layer slices of corned beef (the thin sliced -- not chipped -- works best). Kind of scrunch them up with an "uneven approach" so it's not a slab of corned beef.

Drain saurkraut of 1/2 its juice and lay atop corned beef (if you like the sweeter variety of kraut, thoroughly rinse off canned/jarred juice and replace with a bit of cool water -- toss 1/2 teaspoon brown Sugar Twin or Splenda into it before adding to the casserole dish.) Top with Swiss cheese layer and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes (10 minutes for ramekins) or until cheese is melty but not liquidy.

While dish is baking, in separate bowl mix Thousand Island Dressing, Mayonnaise, and Relish.

Remove casserole dish from oven, slice in 4 serving-size squares and top with dollops of dressing mixture.

This recipe yields 4 servings; 5 carb grams per serving if using Thousand Island Dressing made by version #1 below. Otherwise, adjust carbs accordingly.
