Reuben Loaded Baked Potatoes
I absolutely love baked potatoes. We usually have them about once a week at our house, and the best part about it is there are so many different variations! Between types of potatoes and toppings you basically have infinite baked potato variations. And these Reuben Stuffed Baked Potatoes that I am sharing with you today are probably my new favorite.
These baked potatoes came from a happy accident. I was clearing out the fridge of leftovers for lunch one day (right after St. Patrick’s Day) and it was one of those days where there was just a little bit of everything left. I think Archie probably ended up with some leftover soup and I just stared at the fridge… I had everything for another Reuben Sandwich except for bread, darn but then I found the one lonely leftover baked potato that was left in the fridge. Lightbulb moment!
I quickly whipped together a Reuben Stuffed Baked Potatoes for myself. I was so in love with it that I told myself I had to make one for my husband at some point to see what he thought.
So a week or so later I went to recreate it. So originally I had left over corned beef from the crockpot but I didn’t want to make a whole corned beef roast for a baked potato so I opted for corned beef from the deli counter. (Side Note: If you are reading this after making a corned beef meal and you are looking to use up those leftovers, by all means use that instead of deli meat).
So once the potatoes were fully baked I opened them up and stuffed them full of the corned beef. I added some caraway seed for some extra reuben flavor and covered them with a generous amount of swiss cheese. They are then placed back in the oven until the cheese is nice and melty. SO EASY!

Once all warmed and cheesy, sprinkle on some sauerkraut and drizzle with 1,000 Island Dressing and you have one delicious meal.

The beauty of this meal is how easy it is on top of how delicious these baked potatoes are. The recipe calls for baking your potatoes in the oven but you can as easy either microwave them or cook them in the crockpot depending on what is easiest for you!

The recipe calls for baking your potatoes in the oven but if it is easier to cook them in the microwave or crockpot do it that way!
If you do have leftover corned beef from a roast feel free to use that as a replacement to the deli counter corned beef.
