Ingredients
  

  • Bread Traditional corned beef sandwiches are often made on Rye, but feel free to use your favorite hearty sandwich bread.  I personally love a good sourdough.
  • Cheese Swiss or baby swiss offers a gentle tang plus lots of creaminess.  I also love havarti!
  • Meat Leftover corned beef (or purchase from your deli).
  • Spread Though bottled Russian Dressing is often served on the classic, a 1:1 spread of dijon mustard and mayo makes an easy and flavorful option as well.
  • Veggie Crunch Sourcraut is a classic corned beef combination, but we like to use our favorite coleslaw instead.

Instructions
 

  • Spread both pieces of bread with mayo-dijon mixture and lay cheese on both slices. Add corned beef, close sandwich and drizzle both sides with olive oil.
  • Broil, toast, or grill until cheese is melted and bread is toasted.  Carefully lift up sandwich and fill with coleslaw and serve immediately with a dill pickle and kettle chips.
