Looks like my husband would love it. I have a very similar Reuben dip recipe - just remove the noodles, butter, tomatoes and dressing.

Is this your recipe? It looks scrumptious and I'm going to put it on my absolute must try list!

Anything faintly Reuben must be delicious. Thanks for this one!

 

[BrewerGeorge]

Well, I'll be making that for sure. Thanks

 

[BrewerGeorge]

I bought all the stuff and will be making this tonight!

Phenomenal!

I made it a 'set' casserole by adding two eggs to the 1000 Island and mixing everything together, plus a lot of rye bread crumbs and butter for a crispy topper.

The family loved it. Thanks so much for the idea!

Recipes are made for tweaking! Recipes are for ideas only.

I agree, recipes are only guidelines and ideas. Don't think I have ever followed a recipe exact other than baking, which is more science than cooking.

I don't follow that either! You'd be surprised at what you can get in a cake or cookie by substituting whole spelt flour for that white bleached stuff. Also in cakes that call for an extraordinary amount of cooking oil, you can sub half the oil with applesauce, etc.

Ok, if I can ever get my kitchen back from my daughter I'll have to make this.

Oh, that would be wonderful to have a daughter who loved being in the kitchen. Mine would rather not eat than do anything in the kitchen.
