Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (204ºC).
- In a large bowl, combine the the cream cheese, dressing, drained sauerkraut, chopped corned beef, and half (approximately 1 cup) of the shredded Swiss cheese. Stir with a spatula or large spoon until thoroughly combined.4 ounces (113g) cream cheese, 6 Tablespoons Thousand Island or Russian dressing, 1-14.5 oz can sauerkraut, 8 ounces corned beef, 8 ounces Swiss cheese1
- Pour the mixture into a 9-10" cast iron skillet2, drizzle with a little more Thousand Island dressing (if desired) and sprinkle remaining cheese evenly on top of everything.
- Bake the dip for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese starts to bubble. Remove from the oven and allow to cool about 10 minutes before serving with crackers, bread3, or veggies. Dip may also be served cold. Leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator, covered, up to 3 days. Dip freezes well, up to 3 months. I prefer freezing unbaked dip, thawing it in the refrigerator overnight, and then proceeding with the baking instructions.rye bread

Notes
- Swiss cheese: I like to start with slices and chop them into small pieces, but you can also use pre-shredded or shred from a block yourself. Any of these ways will work just fine.
- Skillet: you can realistically bake this in a square baking dish, pie plate, or a rectangle casserole dish. I do not recommend using anything larger than a 7" x 11" baking dish. If you're doubling the recipe, a 9" x 13" dish works great.
- Bread: I like to serve this dip with marble rye bread, which I sometimes toast for a hardier dipper.
