I came up with this recipe as a way to make a sandwich feed a large group at once. The braid design always impresses the guests at our parties. —Kellie Mulleavy, Lambertville, Michigan

WOW! What a tasty bread... 1 2 lb corn beef yields 5 loaves. I was unable to locate a smaller amount so what the heck! The breads are beautiful to look at and enjoyed with a side of Thousand Island dressing you are set. I used black sesame seed versus white and baked the loaves on Parchment paper. This makes the sticky dough easier to handle and clean up is a wiz! :B>)

This recipe is wonderful! It was delicious and I doubt I will ever make a regular reuben sandwich again!

My family likes this hot reuben sandwich. I have it in the oven for the second time already. I keep it simple, just mix sauerkraut, dressing, cheese, and cooked corned beef brisket. I liked the sandwich with double the filling.

I, too, left out the onions. We love this quick easy dinner!

I love reubens so I made some changes. I omitted the onion (never had a reuben with onion on it) the dill weed and the mustard. I added an extra T. of dressing. I also didn't use sesame seeds. I sprinkled the tops of mine with caraway seeds to mimic the rye bread.

Always a hit with my family!

These were very delish! The sesame seeds accent these perfectly.

Since Reuben sandwiches are a favorite of my husband's I thought I'd try making this dish. It was easy and delicious. I've made it three times in the past two weeks since I had to share it with my friends at work. The first try I used to much onion, but after that it was great!

I think the directions are either difficult to understand or they have you do it the hard way. If you have the crescent rolls laying vertically you cut 1 inch strips horizontally. each strip is crossed over the top and attached on the other side!
