Notes

If you don't remove the peel, it will separate from the tomato as the casserole bakes and can be bitter and tough to cut with a fork.♡ Salt the water when cooking the egg noodles for the best taste.Make-Ahead, Storage, & ReheatingMake-Ahead: You can make this casserole up to the point of baking it and keep it in the refrigerator to bake later in the day.Storage: Leftover Reuben casserole can be stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to five days.Reheating: You can reheat this casserole in the oven, in a microwave, or in a skillet on the stove.
