Reuben Casserole
"Oddly I had never had a Reuben sandwich until this year but once my husband and I tried it, we both declared it "The best sandwich of all times, ever, true story!" Someone mentioned a Reuben Casserole to me and I had to give this a try. We made this and (after a little tweaking) everyone happily wanted to slam their face right into the baking dish to eat this."

Notes
I was told that for a true Reuben, you need to use Russian dressing, not Thousand Island dressing but it's almost impossible to find pre-made Russian dressing so here's the recipe: 1/2 cup Mayonnaise 1/8 cup Cocktail Sauce (you can substitute ketchup) 1 Tbsp Creamy horseradish sauce 2 Tbsp yellow mustard 1 tsp minced onion

Ingredients
- 16 oz sauerkraut, rinsed and drained well
- 1/2-1 tsp Whole Caraway Seed (we toast and grind it but Penzey says to throw it in whole)

- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterrey jack cheese

Directions
