Ingredients in a Reuben Noodle Casserole
Corned Beef – If you happen to have leftover corned beef, it’s perfect for this recipe. If you don’t have leftovers, ask the deli counter to slice corned beef extra thick. Cheese Sauce – The cheese sauce for this casserole sauce resembles mac and cheese with the flavors of a Reuben sandwich- Swiss cheese sauce, a bit of Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Pasta & Cabbage – The base of this Reuben noodle casserole consists of pasta and cabbage. If you have leftover cabbage from corned beef, use that in place of fresh cabbage.
