2 lb. smoked pastrami, thinly sliced
8 oz. Swiss gruyere cheese
12 slices 10-grain bread, toasted
6 oz. cole slaw blend
6 Tbsp. thousand island dressing
Bring water to boil in a large saucepan. Add meat to pan and reduce heat to simmer. Cook 3 min.
While meat cooks, slice gruyere lengthwise into 6 thick slices.
In a small bowl, mix cole slaw with dressing and set aside.
Remove meat to a colander and let drain thoroughly. Place 6 slices of bread on large sandwich plates. Dividing the meat evenly, arrange on bread and top with cheese and slaw. Cover with a second slice of bread and serve immediately with dill pickle and your favorite chips.
Helpful Tip: If you'd like your sandwich hot, simply place meat & cheese topped bread under broiler about 1-2 min. or until cheese is melted before topping with slaw & second piece of bread. And of course, if you'd prefer it more traditional, simply use sauerkraut instead of the slaw mixture.
This is what I call comfort food on bread...way too good to be called a sandwich.
