A Reuben or is it a Rachel Pie

I love Reubens and Rachels, not the people but the Sandwiches.  If I happen to be at a restaurant for lunch and there is a Reuben or Rachel on the menu that is usually my choice. The Reuben is made with corned beef, swiss cheese, sauerkraut, and Russian dressing on rye bread that is toasted or pan fried.  The Rachel has pastrami instead of corned beef. 

Wegmans has a great deli and they have great pastrami which I buy.  Instead of sandwiches which my family does not like to eat for dinner, I made a Rachel Baked dish. The great thing about this dish is that you can whip it up pretty quickly. Using tortillas made it a little less carb intense and made it just a little different.  Also I used ingredients that I had in my fridge.  My family enjoyed it.  Give it a try.

Here are the ingredients

3/4 pound pastrami chopped
1/2 pound swiss cheese chopped
14 ounces sauerkraut
1/4 cup of thousand island dressing (you can add more if you like it saucy)
3 flour tortillas ( from the 10 ct)

Preheat the oven to 350

Mix all the ingredients except the tortillas.  Grease a 9 or 10 inch round baking pan.
Place a tortilla in the bottom than spread a third of the mix.  Repeat and end with a layer of the mixture.  Bake for about 20 minutes or until the dish is thoroughly heated.

Here is what it looks like before you put it into the oven.
