Vegan Reuben Dip

I think if I were forced to choose a favorite sandwich it might come down to a reuben.

It would for sure be in my top 3!

Our vegan conned beef recipe is quickly becoming my favorite deli meat on the site, and there is normally a batch in my fridge!

So recently I saw a recipe for reuben dip that was not vegan, and decided it need to be! I mean I already had the vegan corned beef, and I always have vegan cream cheese, sour cream, and sauerkraut in my fridge!

I have included links to homemade cheese, and even a quick and easy sauerkraut for this dip, but you can just as easily use store-bought!

The corned beef does take a while. You have to prepare the seitan and then allow it to rest for around 8 hours. So if you are planning to make this dip, keep that in mind and get started on the vegan corned beef, STAT!

If you are a fan of a reuben sandwich or corned beef, you won’t regret having a batch ready in you fridge. You only need about a quarter of what you make for this recipe and that means you get to use the rest however you like!

The vegan corned beef also freezes well, so you can freeze what you don’t use for later if you like. It will keep frozen for about 6 months.

This dip is delicious served with crackers, cut up veggies or even used in a sandwich. Currently I have been using up my leftovers as a sandwich spread! I like it on soft white bread, with thinly sliced cucumbers and sprouts! Even my daughter who claimed not to really care for the dip , loved it on a sandwich!

So if you love all things reuben and want a new twist on an old classic, try this vegan reuben dip! I think you will love it as much as I do!
