Ingredients

• 1 can (8 rolls) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 8 slices Corned beef, thinly sliced or chopped
• 4 slices (halved to make 8 pieces) Swiss cheese, sliced
• 1 cup Sauerkraut, drained
• 0.25 cup Thousand Island dressing
• 0.5 teaspoon Caraway seeds (optional)
• 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray or parchment paper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly spray it with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Open the can of refrigerated crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles, gently placing them on a clean surface or a cutting board.

Step 3

Spread a small amount of Thousand Island dressing (approximately 1 teaspoon) onto each triangle of dough.

Step 4

Place a slice or small piece of corned beef on top of the dressing, followed by a half-slice of Swiss cheese.

Step 5

Add a small amount of sauerkraut (about 1 tablespoon) on top of the cheese. Be sure to drain the sauerkraut well to avoid making the dough soggy.

Step 6

Starting from the wider end of the triangle, carefully roll up each crescent dough piece toward the narrower tip, tucking in the fillings as you go. Place each roll, seam side down, on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 7

If desired, sprinkle a pinch of caraway seeds on top of each crescent roll for added flavor.

Step 8

Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 9

Allow the Reuben Crescents to cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Serve warm, and enjoy!
