Creative Corned Beef Leftover Recipes: Delicious Lunch & Dinner Ideas

Corned beef and cabbage is a traditional St. Patrick’s Day meal. But like with most traditional holiday foods (Thanksgiving’s turkey, Christmas’ ham, Easter’s eggs, etc.), it’s way too easy to have too many leftovers when the holiday is over! If you wind up having some excess corned beef after St. Patrick’s Day, and have no idea what to do with it, you should make this recipe! It’s a wonderful lunch or quick dinner recipe, but has all the flavor of a delicious Reuben sandwich! Here’s how to make these easy Reuben Wraps!

If you love a good Reuben sandwich, you’ll love these wraps! I made mine a little healthier by using spinach tortillas, but you could easily use traditional plain tortillas, or gluten free tortillas. You can even use your own homemade flour tortillas (which are always so much tastier than store-bought)! If you added on homemade sauerkraut then you’d really have some extra tasty Reuben wraps!

Depending on what you serve on the side and/or how hungry everyone is, these Reuben wraps are either enough for 2 people or 4. For sides, I recommend a salad, broccoli, or chips.
