I made corned beef and cabbage for NYd, and the beef was phenomenal for once. I'm now jonesing a week of Reubens for lunch at work, but I can't get past the bread issue.  I hate commercial rye bread, so pre-op I made them on Pumpernickel. Corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, and lo-cal 1K Island dressing would work. Suggestions for containing it all?

Yeah, that was my first thought, but I was holding out for something better.

Don't understand detials or chemistry of it but I can eat a sandwich on wheat bread.  Any other kind and I can't fini**** without barfing.  Wheat bread would be my vote if the tortilla doesn't work for you. But that sure sounds like a lottta food on one sandwich.  Could that be the root of the problem??

I'm indirectly asking if anyone knows of  specialty bread that has enough complex carb to it that it's the equivalent of WW. Sounds like Paul has a candidate... I'm also certain that I can make this small enough that I don't overwhelm myself. It won't do to enjoy a masterpiece, and then spew...
