made this for lunch with the girls and they loved it - didn';t have rye bread so used sourdough and it was good and serves a lot of people and served it with a salad and voila lunch for a group.

Good weeknight dinner for leftover corned beef. My family loved it . I substituted russian dressing for the thousand island. I took this dish for a lunch at work and everyone wanted the recipe.
