4 servings
For the Russian dressing
- ⅓ cup mayonnaise
Ingredient noteStore-bought mayonnaise and mayo-based sauces are made with pasteurized eggs, so they are generally fine during pregnancy.
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp prepared horseradish
Ingredient noteOnly large or medicinal amounts of horseradish are a concern in pregnancy. This recipe uses about 3/4 tsp per serving, which is a normal condiment amount.
- 1 tsp worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp sweet pickle relish
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika
For the sandwiches
- 8 slices seeded rye bread
- 1 lb thinly sliced corned beef
Ingredient noteCook all meat thoroughly when pregnant.
- 8 slices swiss cheese
- 1 cup sauerkraut, well drained
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
Instructions
