Ingredients
Scale
Primary Proteins and Cheese:
- 4 ounces (113 grams) corned beef
- 4 ounces (113 grams) Swiss cheese
Bread Base:
- 1 can (8 count) refrigerated crescent rolls
Condiments and Fillings:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) Thousand Island dressing
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) sauerkraut, drained and lightly squeezed dry
Instructions
- Warm the oven to 350°F (175°C), creating an ideal environment for transforming simple ingredients into delectable roll-ups.
- Carefully separate the crescent dough into 8 individual triangular sections, ensuring each piece is evenly spread out on a clean surface.
- Lavishly spread Thousand Island dressing across each crescent triangle, creating a tangy flavor foundation for the upcoming layers.
- Layer thin slices of corned beef precisely in the center of each dough triangle, followed by delicate Swiss cheese strips and a generous sprinkle of tangy sauerkraut.
- Gently roll each filled triangle from the wide end to the pointed tip, tucking in sides to securely encase the savory fillings.
- Arrange the rolled creations on a parchment-lined baking sheet, positioning them with slight separation to allow even heat circulation.
- Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 13-15 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior that signals perfect doneness.
- Remove from oven and let cool briefly, then plate the roll-ups alongside additional Thousand Island dressing for an optional dipping experience.
Notes
- Substitute corned beef with turkey or plant-based alternatives for lighter, dietary-friendly options that maintain the classic Reuben flavor profile.
- Drain sauerkraut thoroughly before adding to prevent soggy rolls and ensure crisp, flaky texture of crescent pastry.
- For enhanced flavor, lightly brush rolls with melted butter and sprinkle caraway seeds before baking to elevate the traditional Reuben sandwich taste.
- Prepare rolls ahead of time and refrigerate unbaked, then bake just before serving for convenient entertaining and maximum freshness.
