Print Recipe

This Creamy Reuben Soup captures all the classic flavors of a Reuben sandwich in a comforting and delicious soup. It’s packed with corned beef, sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese, all blended into a creamy, tangy broth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup sauerkraut, drained and chopped
  • 1 pound corned beef, chopped
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/4 cup Thousand Island dressing
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Rye bread croutons, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  2. Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer.
  3. Add the sauerkraut and corned beef. Simmer for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and Swiss cheese. Cook until the cheese is melted and the soup is heated through. Do not boil.
  5. Stir in the Thousand Island dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with rye bread croutons if desired.

Notes

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling or toasting the rye bread croutons before adding them as a garnish. You can also add a swirl of Thousand Island dressing on top of each serving.
