Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Reuben Pickle Bites
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, low-sugar ketchup, sweet pickle relish, prepared horseradish, fresh lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Use a whisk to blend these ingredients until the dressing is smooth and well-integrated, about 2 minutes.
  2. Gather your pickle chips, thinly sliced corned beef, Swiss cheese, and sauerkraut. Ensure the pickle chips are thoroughly drained and slice the corned beef and Swiss cheese into manageable pieces that will fit on top of each pickle chip.
  3. Take a pickle chip and layer it with a slice of corned beef, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese, and a small spoonful of sauerkraut. Press down gently to ensure each layer adheres to the pickle.
  4. Once all your Reuben Pickle Bites are assembled, take a toothpick and insert it vertically through the center of each layered bite to hold the ingredients together.
  5. You can serve your Reuben Pickle Bites immediately or place them in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes for the flavors to meld together.
