    I would eat the reuben. My version comes to 261 calories, 7 grams of fat using 2 oz. of corned beef - deli, 2 slices of weight watchers rye bread, 1 slice weight watchers swiss cheese, 1 tablespoon fat free thousand island and some sauerkraut. I spray the outside of the rye bread with I cant believe its not butter spray and grill it. You cant taste the difference. Corned beef from the deli has a lot less fat and is sliced thinner than when you make a corned beef at home and use that. I've done it that way and it makes my sandwich 364 calories and had 21 grams of fat.

    Duh! IT'S BAD LUCK NOT TOO! If you throw some saurkraut over your shoulder when it falls out of the sandwich - that's good luck too! (counts as salt!), just don't eat it under a ladder - cancels all the good stuff out.

    Noooooo! Don't eat Peter Paul Rubens or you'll be Rubenesque!

    Oh, you meant the sandwich, Rueben.

    My bad...eat the sandwich, much better or you'll be considered a necro-canniblist...and that's just empty calories.

    I don't think the person sitting behind me would like the kraut... But if it means good luck...I have no choice right? :bigsmile:

    I don't splurge too much... And it IS St Patrick's day tomorrow...

    I got the calories...it's just all the salt!!! :noway: I'll be in the 4,000s with sodium. :sad:

    This is usually what keeps me from eating the reuben.

    Hmm...that is a tricky question....however...Rueben's are not irish...they are German/American based.
    :) However for yummy's sake....just use turkey & not a ton of kraut. & mustard not thousand island. ;)


    If you're gonna mess it up like that, just don't eat it!

    But it's just as good..but without the butt-load of fat!. You can always do turkey pastrami. ;)
