Ingredients

  • Yield: 1 2 1/2-quart casserole

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 2 1/2-quart glass casserole dish with nonstick spray.
  • Place 1/2 of the rye bread cubes on the bottom of the prepared casserole. Spoon mashed potatoes evenly over the bread. Repeat with cabbage, and then corned beef. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of the Swiss cheese over the corned beef and top with remaining bread.
  • Beat half-and-half, eggs, and cayenne together in a medium bowl. Pour evenly over the entire casserole. Use a fork to gently press the bread under the batter, allowing it to soak up as much liquid as possible. Keep the casserole at room temperature for 20 minutes before baking.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 45 minutes, sprinkling with remaining Swiss cheese halfway through. Allow casserole to sit for 15 minutes before serving.
