Reuben Soup

by Judy

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

Inspired by my love for Reuben sandwiches, this Reuben Soup turned out to be quite a nice surprise.  A hearty and tasty soup that’s perfect for your leftover corned beef!

Reuben Soup has corned beef, sauerkraut and potatoes

I started by sautéing celery and onions in butter with some garlic.  Then added some flour and beef broth, brought it to a boil, then tossed in the potatoes, sauerkraut, corned beef, and some caraway seeds and let it simmer until the potatoes were tender.  To finish it I tossed in some swiss cheese and let it melt, then tasted it.  Yummy, but I wanted just a bit more zing so I added a tablespoon of whole grain mustard.   The recipe online called for 3 cups of half and half which I wasn’t planning to use but the soup was kind of a blah looking color so I added a half cup.

You know what I think would be a good topper?  A grilled swiss cheese sandwich on rye or pumpernickel cut up into croutons like I did with my roasted tomato soup!  Give it a try…I hope you like it.
