Meatless Reuben Grilled Cheese

We’ve morphed this diner staple into a toasty, cheese-forward sandwich that will transport you to your favorite greasy spoon. The familiar symphony of tangy, sweet, and nutty flavors make a splendid grilled cheese–you won’t miss the meat! Lunch is ready in under 30 minutes to boot, thanks to June’s Grilled Cheese Cook-Program. Thousand Island can be substituted for Russian dressing (it can be easier to find), and make sure to drain your sauerkraut well to avoid soggy bread.
