We used Jagdschnitten rye bread (with whole wheat kernals in it) for this, and regular Thousand Island dressing. It was very tasty, although I am glad I used about half the quantity of dressing called for; it would have been a bit soggy otherwise. A quick and pleasant lunch on a winter day, although the nutrition facts remind me why I have a Reuben about once a year.

I live in Western New York, on Lake Ontario. Great cultural, food, and touring area. For fun, we go "wandering" to the Finger Lakes area for lunch and "junk hunts".
I retired after 15 years as a travel agent, but I'm very busy with family and friends.
Favorite cookbook: 'American Century' by Jean Anderson. Great reference book! I love to read cookbooks, and can't pass up a chance to get "just one more".
I now work part time for the Canadian American Transportation System, also known as the "Fast Ferry", or "The Breeze" that goes between Rochester NY and Toronto. It's a gorgeous ship, and a cool job!
