Kimchi Reuben, Winter Citrus & Fennel Salad and Cucumber Lemonade 

BRAVO TV's Chef Roblé is one of my favorite shows on TV because it's a NYC based show, has tons of drama and of course the food the chef dreams up looks amazing! Last season, Chef Roblé created a Kimchi Reuben Sandwich for his sister to try and even says he wanted to Google it to so he could trademark the recipe?! For those of us that eat kimchi everyday and was taught by our parents that our friends would never like the "stinky" food - so we'd go brush our teeth after eating it for breakfast before school - how cool is that?! They were wrong, the world does love kimchi like us! If you want to try his Kimchi Reuben, here's the recipe from the Wendy Williams show! Enjoy the extra recipes too!

4 slices Swiss cheese
2 slices Rye Bread
1/4 cup Kimchi
3 tablespoons of Thousand Island salad dressing

Preheat sandwich press to 350 degrees. Put two slices of thinly sliced Swiss cheese on each slice of rye bread. Spread ¼ cup of kimchi evenly between 2 slices of bread. Distribute ¼ pound of corned beef the two slices of bread. Drizzle 3 tablespoons of dressing on top of meat. Close sandwich and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until cheese is melded and meat is hot.
