Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a 9×9-inch baking dish.
- Prepare Crescent Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and press it into the bottom of the baking dish, sealing any perforations.
- Layer Ingredients: Spread the Thousand Island dressing evenly over the dough. Layer corned beef over the dressing, followed by sauerkraut and Swiss cheese.
- Add Top Layer: Unroll the second package of crescent dough (if using two packages) and place it on top, sealing the edges well to enclose the filling. If you have only one package, you can layer the filling on half of the dough and fold over to create a crescent roll “pocket.”
- Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool & Serve: Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with extra Thousand Island dressing on the side.
Tips & Variations
- Make it Spicy: Add a little horseradish or Dijon mustard to the dressing for a kick.
- Extra Cheese: Use a blend of Swiss and mozzarella for gooeyness.
- Add Pickles: Finely chopped pickles add extra crunch and tang.
- Individual Servings: Use crescent roll dough triangles filled with the ingredients for handheld mini bakes.
Serving Suggestions
- Pair with a crisp green salad or creamy coleslaw.
- Serve alongside kettle-cooked chips or fries.
- Enjoy with a cold beer or your favorite sandwich side.
