St. Patty's Leftovers...

I have my sister and Trader Joe's to thank for this wonderful recipe! This is the first year I've made a traditional St. Patrick's day dinner (corned beef & cabbage) instead of the all-green dinner I usually make on March 17th. My sister had been to Trader Joe's earlier in the day and had watched a little cooking demo and called to tell me these open-faced sandwiches were delicious. I gave them a try and invited my in-laws over for dinner and they all loved them. I made 12 sandwiches for 4 people and there weren't any leftovers!Open-faced Corned Beef Sandwiches Ingredients:

  • Corned Beef, cooked & shredded

  • Onion Rye Bread (found at Trader Joe's)

  • Swiss cheese, sliced

  • Deli-style spicy brown mustard

Method:



  • Lay 12 slices of bread on a baking sheet and spread with mustard.

  • Top with shredded corned beef and swiss cheese slices.

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees and place sandwiches in oven for approx. 8-10 mins. or until bread is toasted and cheese is melted. (You can also place under a broiler for a few minutes).

  • Serve immediately with extra mustard on the side for dipping.
