Turkey Reubens! A little light delight!


TURKEY REUBENS

WW Short Cut Cookbook

Prep 10 minutes cook 5 minutes serves 4

Yield: 4 servings (1 sandwich)per serving

NI: 251 cal, 5g fat, 6g fiber

Ingredients:
1/4c reduced-fat Thousand Island dressing
1 tbsp drained jarred capers, chopped
8 slices reduced-calorie seedless rye bread
6 ounces sliced turkey pastrami (I used fat-free turkey slices)
1/2c jarred red cabbage, squeezed dry
4 (3/4oz) slices reduced-fat Swiss cheese

Combine the dressing and capers in a small bowl; spread over 4 slices of the bread. Top each slice with one quarter of the turkey, 1/4 of the cabbage, and 1 slice of the cheese. Cover the sandwiches with remaining slices of bread.

Spray a large nonstick skillet or griddle with nonstick spray and set over medium-low heat. Add the sandwiches 9in batches if necessary) and cook until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes on each side. Cut each sandwich in half and serve at once.

** I thought these sandwiches hit the spot considering they were weight watchers friendly. They did lack a tad of zip..compared to the real Reuben, next time I will add some hot peppers to spice it up. No extra points but I will feel the zing!!
