Tuna Melt

While taking someone's money for an overpriced, prepackaged tuna salad sandwich, I thought to myself that what I really wanted out of life was a tuna melt. So I made some. On a scale from 1 to delicious, they were delectable. I made the basic tuna melt, a tuna salad sandwich with cheese (remember that expensive cheese from the quiche? Ooooooh yeah) that is fried (remember that grease from the bacon? Ooooooooooooooooh yeah). I used fancy-pants Italian bread that I'm also going to use to make French toast (Continental breakfast?), and since I got the proportions I used for the salad from the starkist website I went ahead and sprung for their tuna (40 cents more per can than the cheapest store brand! Oy!).

On a parenthetical note, this post would be about 75% as long if you removed the parenthetical notes, not including this one.

The taste and texture were both wonderful, the melty expensive cheese combining with the tuna salad all sandwiched between two really nice slices of bacon bread. If I had to find something wrong, it would be that the tuna salad had too much tuna and not enough salad (a rookie mistake that I should be ashamed of). There was one thing lacking from the starkist recipe: eggs. More refined wasps always also add hard boiled eggs to their thing + mayonnaise salads, because they love eggs and there aren't enough in the mayonnaise already (thing + egg + mayonnaise = classy thing salad). Never fear; I've only made 2 sandwiches with it so far, so tonight I'll toss one into the tupperware of tuna salad that's currently stinkifying the bottom of my fridge.

ON THE NEXT EPISODE: I simply wok into Mordor- Fried Rice (Or: Eat your heart out, Boromir)!
