Corned Beef and Slaw Sandwich
This corned beef and coleslaw sandwich is an extremely addicting sandwich.
Sandwiches are a great way to reinvent leftovers.
And in this case, it’s not just any sandwich, it’s a corned beef sandwich with globs of juicy homemade coleslaw in it.
This sandwich is even better if the slaw is so packed that it’s falling out of the sides of the sandwich.
About this Recipe
Although this recipe is made with leftover corned beef, other sliced cooked meats such as ham or turkey would also taste wonderful topped with this homemade slaw.
And feel free to use your favorite bread.
A really good bread can make all the difference in the world when it comes to making a great sandwich.
In this recipe I used toasted wheat sourdough bread, but a big bun would be delicious too.
Let’s check out the ingredients.
Coleslaw – green and purple (red) cabbage, carrots, green onion, rice vinegar, mayonnaise, sugar, salt and pepper
Sandwich – sliced corned beef, sliced Swiss cheese, slices of wheat bread, horseradish (from a jar), yellow mustard and mayonnaise

I especially loved the slaw recipe. I used bag slaw with reg, red cabbage w/carrots.
Made a couple changes to what I had on hand:
I used Truvia, apple cider vinegar, and Hellman’s and a squirt of Miracle Whip.
I used ciabatta rolls from Publix bakery taste as good as they look!
Hi Sandra, great idea on using the bagged slaw ingredients. That’s an even quicker way to make this coleslaw. And your other changes sound delicious! Thank you so much for letting me know that you liked this recipe and also for your rating!
