I have a potential host who told me about a show she went to years ago and the consultant prepared some type of mini reubens in the mini muffin pan. She said they even had sauerkraut in them and they were delicious. She couldn't remember everything in it but said the crust may have been crescent rolls and she remembers the consultant using the mini tart shaper. Does anybody have any idea what recipe this could have been? She's not sure the crust was crescent rolls but she doesn't remember anything being mixed up to make the crust.

I met this lady at a booth the other week and she marked on her drawing slip that she wants to host a show but when I called her she said it would have to be when school is out. So I'm wanting to keep in contact with her until I get her booked. She needed a replacement part for the egg slicer so I got it for her and she was thrilled. She mentioned this recipe and told me to see if I could find it for her. I'm hoping if I can find it, she'll book with me before school is out.

Ideas anybody?????:confused:
 
Maybe the Reuben Rollups? These are cooked on a stone..Mary Reuben Roll Ups2 packages (8oz. each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 package corned beef (2.5 oz.) chopped
1/2 C. sauerkraut drained, squeezed dry and chopped
1/4 C. 1000 Island dressing
1 C. finely shredded Swiss cheesePreheat oven to 375°. Unroll crescent rolls and separate into 8 triangles. Press perforations together to seal. Mix together sauerkraut and corned beef. Spread 1 1/2 t. dressing on each triangle. Top with corned beef, sauerkraut and cheese. Starting at shortest side, roll up jelly roll style. Cut each roll into 4 1 inch pieces. Bake on a 15 inch baking stone 20-22 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm with additional dressing if desired.

Thanks so much Gwen! However, I found this same recipe last night and sent it to the lady to see if it's what she's talking about. She had said she was sure it was done in the mini muffin pan though so I don't know if this is it. But I suppose it could be made in the muffin pan..............somehow.

Anyway, thanks for your help!
 
I bet you could easily convert that to the MMP....just cut your crescents into 6 squares (each section)..and mix the reuben stuff in a bowl-just use shredded swiss and bake for 10 min..I bet it works great!
