Keto Reuben in a Bowl
This Keto Reuben in a Bowl is a low-carb twist on the classic Reuben sandwich, made in just one skillet with all the bold flavors you love—without the bread!
Ingredients
- For the Bowl:
- 1 bag coleslaw mix about 12–14 oz
- 1 pound corned beef cut into strips
- 2 –3 tbsp butter
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- Chopped scallions for garnish (optional)
- For the Russian Dressing:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sugar-free ketchup
- 4 tsp horseradish
- 1 tsp hot sauce
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Pinch of pepper
Instructions
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sugar-free ketchup, horseradish, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir well and set aside.
- Cook the corned beef: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the corned beef strips and cook, covered, for about 5 minutes until warmed through and slightly crispy on the edges.
- Add the cabbage: Add the coleslaw mix to the skillet. Cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes until softened but still slightly crunchy. Stir to combine with the corned beef.
- Melt the cheese: Lay Swiss cheese slices over the top of the mixture. Cover and let melt naturally, or place under a broiler for 2–3 minutes for a bubbly, golden finish.
- Serve: Drizzle with prepared Russian dressing, garnish with chopped scallions if desired, and serve hot.
Notes
Substitute sauerkraut for coleslaw mix for a more traditional Reuben flavor. Try pastrami or turkey in place of corned beef if desired. Add toppings like avocado, pickle slices, or jalapeños for extra flavor and texture. Perfect for meal prep – cool completely before storing in airtight containers.
