Reuben-Stuffed Crescent Bites
Reuben-Stuffed Crescent Bites wrap buttery, flaky dough around melty Swiss, tangy sauerkraut, and salty pastrami or corned beef, all brightened with creamy Thousand Island. A glossy egg wash and caraway seeds add aroma and crunch for a deli-classic twist in hand-held form. Serve them warm for game day, casual appetizers, or a hearty snack.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- 2
On a cutting board or work surface, separate the crescent rolls into 16 triangles, arranging them so the thin points face away from you.
- 3
Cut each slice of pastrami or corned beef diagonally into 2 triangles, making 16. Cut each Swiss cheese slice in half, then cut each half diagonally to make 16 triangles.
- 4
For each crescent dough triangle, place a triangle of meat and shape it to be slightly smaller than the dough. Add a triangle of Swiss cheese.
- 5
Place 1 tablespoon sauerkraut along the bottom edge of each triangle. Add 1/2 teaspoon Thousand Island salad dressing on top of the sauerkraut.
- 6
Roll the crescents away from you, starting at the wide end and rolling to the narrow point, as you would a crescent roll, keeping the filling inside the dough as it rolls. Place each finished roll on the prepared pan.
- 7
Brush each roll-up with egg and sprinkle with caraway seeds.

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and hot throughout, 21 to 25 minutes. Remove to a baking rack to cool for 3 to 5 minutes. Serve warm.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
