The Reuben, a classic sandwich in delicatessens and diners across America, is outrageously high in fat and calories—and fabulously delicious. As the story reportedly goes, it was created for a leading lady in a Charlie Chaplin film in 1914. We have drastically slimmed down the sandwich in this recipe by turning it into a quesadilla and using reduced-fat corned beef, which you can find at the deli counter in supermarkets and in specialty food stores. It also features reduced-sodium sauerkraut, apples, honey mustard, and shredded pepper jack cheese. These quesadillas are a fun snack or appetizer and, bonus, take less than 15 minutes to put together.
