Corned Beef On Rye Salad

Corned Beef on Rye Salad

I had a corned beef and cooked it up in the crock pot. My original plan was to make a Reuben sandwich with it for dinner. By the time it was done, and I was ready to have dinner, I realized I was more in the mood for a salad. I decided to use the corned beef with Swiss cheese and some rye bread to make this dish. It really did remind me of a Reuben sandwich.

Combine equal amounts of mayo, ketchup and sweet pickle relish. Stir to combine. I like to add capers sometimes, too. Store unused portion in the fridge.
