After raising a few glasses on Patty's Day and recouping Saturday it was time to get back in the saddle. Off to market bright and early, strawberries were on sale at 77¢ a pound, two pounds make a nice strawberry pie, and I do loves me some sugar free pie, so I made one!
Now the day before as I was nursing myself back to full health I made a loaf of dark rye in the bread machine anticipating the Reuben to come.
I'd whipped up a little thousand island dressing and had all the fixin's on hand, time for a sanny. Hit both slices of rye with some dressing
Then some sauerkraut on one slice of bread, caramelized onions on the other
I had nine ounces of corned beef left so that was going to have to do. It was nice fatty stuff, first half
Next up a layer of some swiss cheese to cover
Then add the remaining half of the corned beef, of course
I like to grill my sanny's nice and slow in a 8" skillet, start with a quarter cube of butter
I'll go a little lid on, lid off, add a little more butter, maybe 20 minutes, then flip
Takes about the same amount of time on the flip side, lid on to ensure the cheese gets gooey melted. It's a fair sized sanny so I cut it in half to plate up with some cole slaw I made. Been using

's dressing recipe for years now, replacing the sugar with Splenda
Oh, back to the sanny! Was hot, gooey, buttery, crunchy delicious
Could have downed the second half but saved just enough room for a piece of strawberry pie with whipped cream
Well now after the Patty's Day sales I've got a freezer full of corned beef, six flats, two rounds, and two points, reckon there will be another Reuben coming my way real soon. Thanks for lookin' in and y'all try to stay safe out there! RAY
