Main Ingredients
- 8 ounces corned beef, diced or shredded
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 4 ounces Swiss cheese, sliced or shredded
- 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
Instructions
- Cook the cabbage and corned beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, add the shredded cabbage and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently until the cabbage is tender. Add the diced or shredded corned beef and continue cooking for another 5 minutes, stirring often, until heated through and slightly browned.
- Add the Swiss cheese: Sprinkle the Swiss cheese evenly over the cabbage and corned beef mixture. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it melt for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and fully melted.
- Serve with Thousand Island dressing: Spoon the warmed Reuben mixture into bowls and top each serving with a generous dollop of Thousand Island dressing. Serve immediately and enjoy your sandwich-free Reuben bowl.
Notes
- Use fresh shredded cabbage for the best texture; pre-shredded works if in a pinch.
- Feel free to use leftover corned beef if you have it, or cook corned beef freshly before shredding.
- To make this recipe keto-friendly, ensure your Thousand Island dressing is low in sugar or use a homemade version.
- This recipe serves well as a low-carb alternative to classic Reuben sandwiches.
