Breakfast Reubens

1. 1

   Heat a non-stick skillet over medium high heat, and add the 1 teaspoon oil.

2. 2

   Lightly brown the frozen hashbrowns, about 4 minutes per side; carefully remove from skillet (you don't want them to lose their shape) and set aside.

3. 3

   Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; butter an 11x7x2-inch baking pan.

4. 4

   In a bowl, combine the sauerkraut and applesauce; set aside.

5. 5

   Place the hash brown patties in the greased baking pan and spread softened butter on each.

6. 6

   Layer each patty with: 3 slices pastrami, sauerkraut mixture, Thousand Island dressing, and Swiss cheese.

7. 7

   Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 to 20 minutes or until the patties are crisped to your liking.

8. 8

   Note: you can skip the hashbrown pre-browning steps (in the skillet), if you like, but I like my hashbrowns very crispy and so prefer them pre-browned.
