Ingredients

• 1 pound Corned beef
• 2 cups Sauerkraut, drained and squeezed dry
• 2 cups Swiss cheese, shredded
• 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
• 0.25 cup Chopped dill pickles
• 1 cup Rye breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Butter, melted (if using breadcrumbs)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter.

Step 3

Chop the corned beef into bite-sized pieces and spread it evenly across the bottom of the casserole dish.

Step 4

Layer the drained and dried sauerkraut on top of the corned beef, spreading it out evenly.

Step 5

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and caraway seeds (if using). Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Fold in the chopped dill pickles to the mixture and then spread it evenly over the sauerkraut layer.

Step 7

Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the casserole.

Step 8

If using rye breadcrumbs, combine them with the melted butter in a small bowl and sprinkle the mixture over the cheese.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top is lightly browned.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Slice into portions and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley or serve with a side of low-carb rye crackers.
