MINI-REUBENS
This is based on a recipe from Eating Well magazine, Sept/Oct 1995. I think these are great. The intro says, "Last spring, I was asked by the Good Morning America producers to create a menu for people to enjoy while watching the Academy Awards. This recipe was inspired by a scene in the Oscar-nominated film Quiz Show. Now that fall is here, serve these mini-sandwiches during the half-time show on football Sundays, or rent the movie, make full-sized sandwiches and have a relaxing Friday night."

Tips:
- To make the most flavorful mini Reubens, use high-quality ingredients. Look for thinly sliced corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, and creamy Russian dressing.
- If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can broil the assembled sandwiches for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- For a more traditional Reuben, use rye bread instead of white bread.
- To make the sandwiches ahead of time, assemble them and wrap them tightly in plastic wrap. Store them in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- When you're ready to serve, preheat your oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the sandwiches until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted, about 10 minutes.
Conclusion:
Triple-decker mini Reubens are a delicious and easy-to-make party appetizer or lunch option.
