Chef's pro tip
The classic characteristic of a Reuben dip is its creamy texture and delicious flavors. But things can turn south! The dip can turn too watery if you don't closely monitor its texture, especially during preparation. So ensure your sauerkraut is well-drained before adding it to the mixture.
If the sauce is still thin, add a tablespoon or two of almond or coconut flour to help absorb some of the moisture. Gradually sprinkle the flour while stirring until you achieve the desired consistency.

I’m tempted to add a layer of swiss cheese on top for some added melty goodness!
