Spanish Tuna Melt


Ingredients:
1 can tuna in water
3 to 4 tablespoons of Mayo
1/2 a roma tomato, diced
1 jalepeno (diced)
3 tablespoons red onion diced
salt & pepper
4 slices of sourdough bread
butter
garlic powder
4 slices of cheese for topping each toast
Directions:
Spread 1 side of each slice of bread and sprinkle with garlic powder, place buttered side down on a cookie sheet (I lined mine with foil)
Mix all other ingredients together in a bowl and salt/pepper to taste. Spread a thin layer on each slice of bread. If it isn't thin the bread will burn and the cheese will melt before the tuna melt gets warm.
Top each toast with a slice of cheese. Today I used American but usually if I have it I prefer cheddar or provolone.
Broil until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
You have you're choice of eating this a toast (slider) or putting two together to make a sandwich (which is what I did in the picture)
Enjoy!

Grilled Holiday Sandwich


Have you ever been starving and you want something, sweet/salty/creamy/crunchy/tangy/tart/meaty/melty all at once?

Yea, I was pregnant once too. And from pregnancy alone this sandwich was born.


Ingredients:


Smoked turkey

Provolone Cheese

Chipolte Mayo

Cranberry Sauce

Sour Dough Bread, Sliced

(and sometimes thinly sliced red onion)

Butter



Directions:

1. Take 2 slices of sourdough bread and butter the outside with butter. Then spread the inside with chipolte mayo.

2. Place a slice of provolone on the mayo side of each bread.

3. Layer one slice with turkey (and onions if you are using them)

4. Spread the other slice with cranberry relish

5. Put two halves together and brown in a skillet over medium heat or in a panini press (if you have one) until cheese is melted and outside of bread is golden brown.
