Quick & easy — minimal prep and fast bake time

Classic deli flavors with a golden, flaky twist

Perfect for dinner, potlucks, or game day

Ingredients

1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough – Flaky crust for the bake

1 cup sauerkraut, drained – Adds tangy depth

¼ cup Thousand Island dressing – Classic creamy Reuben flavor

½ lb. shaved corned beef deli meat – Savory, hearty filling

8 slices Swiss cheese – Melts perfectly between layers

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

On a lightly floured surface, open the crescent dough and divide in half. Press seams in each half to form two rectangles.

Roll out one rectangle to about 12 inches long and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake the base crust for 10 minutes or until lightly golden.

Top the crust with 4 slices of Swiss cheese.

Mix the sauerkraut and Thousand Island dressing in a small bowl.

Layer the corned beef over the cheese, then spread the sauerkraut mixture on top.

Add the remaining 4 slices of Swiss cheese over the filling.

Roll out the second dough rectangle and place it over the top. Pinch the edges to seal.

Bake for another 20 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.

Pro Tips

Drain sauerkraut well to prevent a soggy crust.

Brush the top crust with beaten egg for a shiny, golden finish.

Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before cutting to hold its shape.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with extra Thousand Island dressing for dipping.

Pair with potato chips, coleslaw, or a pickle spear.

Cut into small squares and serve as a party appetizer.
