Turkey Reuben

Chef Chris calls this sandwich the new Rueben. He uses reduced-calorie Thousand Island salad dressing and swaps turkey and lightly dressed coleslaw for corned beef and sauerkraut--all in the interest of better health and great taste.

This has become one of our favorite sandwiches! It tastes too good to be so good for you! My husband works various shifts and it is quick and easy enough for me to fix on those days when we are both home for lunch and can enjoy a meal together.
