This Reuben Dip takes all the iconic flavors of a traditional Reuben sandwich—savory corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and Thousand Island dressing—and transforms them into a creamy, irresistible dip. Perfect for parties, game days, or casual gatherings, it’s a crowd-pleaser that’s easy to make and full of flavor.
Ingredients
Corned Beef: 1 pound, chopped (savory and meaty base).
Swiss Cheese: 8 ounces, shredded (creamy, tangy flavor).
Sauerkraut: 1 (14-ounce) can, well-drained (adds tang and sourness).
Mayonnaise: 1 cup (rich, creamy texture).
Thousand Island Dressing: 2/3 cup (sweet and tangy balance).
Parsley: Chopped, for garnish (adds a fresh touch).
Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Preheat
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare Ingredients: Chop the corned beef, shred the Swiss cheese, and drain/press the sauerkraut to remove excess liquid. Properly draining the sauerkraut ensures the dip won’t become watery.
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, combine the corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut, mayonnaise, and Thousand Island dressing. Mix thoroughly to ensure everything is well incorporated.
Step 3: Assemble the Dip
Spread the mixture evenly into an 8×8-inch baking dish (or a similar-sized oven-safe dish). Level the surface for even baking.
Step 4: Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the dip is hot, bubbly, and golden brown on top.
Step 5: Garnish
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Step 6: Serve
Serve the dip warm with your choice of dippers, such as rye chips, crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh veggies like celery and carrot sticks.
Serving and Storage Tips
Serving Suggestions:
Best Served Hot: Serve straight from the oven while it’s still warm and bubbly for the ultimate creamy texture.
Dippers: Rye chips, crackers, toasted bread, or even pretzels pair perfectly with this dip.
