REUBEN BREAD PUDDING

Reuben Bread Pudding image

Our Aunt Renee always brought this casserole to family picnics in Chicago. It became so popular that she started bringing two or three. I have also made it using dark rye bread or marbled rye, and ham instead of corned beef-all the variations are delicious! -Johnna Johnson, Scottsdale, Arizona
