Many years ago I came across a recipe for Reuben soup with closet cooking. I told her husband then, but she wouldn’t let me forget.

His all-time favorite sandwich is the classic Reuben. Corned beef, sauerkraut and plenty of melting Swiss cheese on rye bread.

A winter soup idea that offers everything we love in a Reuben sandwich? Don’t miss the rye bread that accompanies the soup. A perfect finish.

The first time I made this soup, my husband and I really enjoyed it and my kids were less than impressed. This soup disappears quickly every time I make it.

Luckily, most of my boys grew to love Reuben sandwiches, which made this recipe a huge favorite for most of my family.

This soup has been on the regular winter menu rotation for over a decade.

Did you know that corned beef is available year-round at most stores? I didn’t until I decided to check out the deli when I wanted to make this soup.

I’ve salted myself in the past, but this time I was happy to pick up a ready-to-cook package and throw it in the crockpot. We have a great breakfast skillet in our near future too!
