Marcy says
I absolutely love this ! The only change I made was using pastrami instead of corned beef (personal preference) , and I used cabbage instead of lettuce because it holds up longer in the fridge. Thank you for sharing this !

This salad was just what we needed tonight now that it is to hot to cook.
Sierra says
This was such a fantastic idea! I had been craving a reuben sandwich and this really didn't feel like a compromise. I heated the corned beef and swiss in the toaster oven to make it melty, and I topped with everything but the bagel seasoning. Used my own Russian dressing recipe (tomato paste & ACV instead of ketchup and a heaping spoonful of horseradish). Definitely hit the spot - thanks!
