Corned Beef On Rye Salad

Corned Beef on Rye Salad

I had some corned beef and was planning to make a sandwich with it for lunch. But it is warm today, and I was more in the mood for a salad. Since I also had some lovely salad greens,  I decided to combine them in one dish.

 

The end result was very tasty.

 

I prepped my greens, then topped them with the corned beef and Swiss cheese. I made croutons out of the rye bread and dressed the salad with homemade thousand island dressing. A nice Russian dressing would have worked, too. Perhaps, even a simple oil and vinegar dressing. The thousand island dressing made it like a Reuben sandwich, minus the sauerkraut.
