**Instructions:**
1. **Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish:** Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
2. **Assemble the Base:** Spread the cubed rye bread evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Layer the shredded corned beef and sauerkraut on top of the bread.
3. **Make the Dressing:** In a bowl, combine the Russian dressing and Dijon mustard. Mix until smooth, then drizzle this over the corned beef and sauerkraut layer.
4. **Add Cheese:** Sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese generously over the top.
5. **Egg and Milk Mixture:** In a separate bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs and milk. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the casserole, making sure to cover the bread and other ingredients.
6. **Bake:** Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly. If you want a crispier top, drizzle the melted butter over the casserole during the last 5 minutes of baking.
7. **Serve and Enjoy:** Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot, and enjoy the delicious Reuben flavors in a whole new way.
