Reuben Braids

K, here's some GREAT game watching grub:
(makes 2 loaves - 8 servings each)

6 oz cooked corn beef brisket, chopped (about 1 cup)
1&1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded Aged* Swiss cheese
3/4 cup sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained
1 small sweet* white onion, chopped
3 T. Thousand Island dressing
1 T. Dijon mustard
1/2 t. dill weed
2 pkg. (8 oz. each) refrigerated crescent rolls
1 egg white, lightly beaten
1 T. caraway* seeds (you can use sesame seeds, if you prefer)

In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Unroll one tube of crescent dough onto an ungreased baking sheet; seal seams and perforations with your fingers. Spread half of corned beef filling down center of rectangle. On each long side, cut 1" wide strips to within 1" of filling. Starting at one end, fold alternating strips at an angle across filling; seal ends. Repeat with remaining crescent dough and filling. Brush egg white over braids; sprinkle with caraway seeds. Bake at 375 for 25-30 mins. or until golden brown. Cool on wire racks for 5 mins. before cutting into slices. FREEZE OPTION: Freeze cooled unsliced loaf in heavy-duty foil. To use, remove from freezer 30 before reheating. Remove from foil and reheat loaf on a greased baking sheet in a preheated 325 oven until heated through.
