A classic rueben with wild garlic Havarti has peppery greens added to the mix and sweet butternut squash for a great combination of flavors.
By Carlene Thomas
It is the perfect time of year to have a Reuben done up fancy and with more greens. I mean, let’s be real here: March is also national nutrition month, so I would be remiss if I didn’t make some attempt to add in some veggies to this recipe.
The best way to make a reuben is by picking a cheese with big impact. When I realized Castello had a havarti cheese with a wild garlic flavor, the wheels started turning. Ya’ll. This cheese can MELT. Plus, you could totally pull off this recipe with a few of their other Castello Havarti cheeses in dill, caraway (OMG PERFECT), jalapeño and herbs and spices blend.
By balancing a sweet butternut squash with salty corned beef and bitter, peppery arugula, everything comes together so nicely to make a party on a plate.
