Ingredients

Scale

For the Reuben Dip:

  • 2 cups (about 8 oz) shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 ½ cups cooked corned beef, finely chopped
  • 1 cup sauerkraut, drained and patted dry
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the Rye Bread Bowl and Dippers:

  • 1 large round rye bread loaf
  • Additional rye or pumpernickel bread slices, cut into cubes (for dipping)
  • Assorted crackers, pretzels, or veggie sticks (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Rye Bread Bowl:
    • Cut the top off the round rye loaf and reserve the top for later use as a lid or for dipping.
    • Hollow out the center of the bread loaf, leaving about 1-inch thick walls and base. Set the hollowed-out bread aside for dipping.
  • Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Mix the Dip Ingredients:
    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.
    • Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well.
    • Add shredded Swiss cheese, chopped corned beef, and sauerkraut. Stir until combined. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
  • Assemble the Dip:
    • Spoon the prepared Reuben dip mixture into the hollowed-out rye bread bowl. Spread evenly for a neat presentation.
    • Wrap the filled bread bowl with aluminum foil, leaving the top open.
  • Bake the Dip:
    • Place the wrapped bread bowl on a baking sheet.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until the dip is hot and bubbly with a light golden-brown top.
  • Toast the Bread Cubes:
    • Arrange the hollowed-out bread pieces and extra rye cubes on another baking sheet.
    • Toast in the oven for 10-12 minutes until slightly crispy for perfect dippers.
  • Serve and Enjoy:
    • Remove the dip from the oven and place on a serving platter. Surround it with toasted bread cubes, crackers, or veggie sticks. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can substitute the rye bread with pumpernickel bread for an additional flavor twist.
