Pasta & Cabbage – The base of this Reuben casserole consists of pasta and cabbage. If you have leftover cabbage from corned beef, use that in place of fresh cabbage.

Cook onions and leftover corned beef (or ham in a pinch) in butter per the full recipe below. While the onions are cooking, prepare the cheese sauce. Boil pasta and cabbage and place them in a casserole dish. Add sauerkraut, the corned beef mixture, and the creamy Swiss cheese sauce. Top panko and parmesan to give it a crispy topping and bake until golden and bubbly. TOPPING TIP: If you’d like to incorporate the flavor of rye bread, place a piece or two in a blender or food processor. Pulse a few times until it forms crumbs, and use them in place of the panko.

Once it comes out of the oven, garnish with chopped dill pickles!
