Curried Tuna Melts

This is a pretty easy snack.

What you need:

- 1 can of tuna
- 2 English muffins
- Raisins (optional)
- 2 tbsp of mayonnaise
- 1/2 Onion
- Mozarella cheese
- Curry powder



Pre-heat the oven to broil.

Chop the onion.

On medium-high heat, brown the onions slightly in a little bit of oil.





Mix all the ingredients in a bowl.

Add curry to taste.







Spread the mixture over the split english muffins and put on a cookie sheet.









Cover with sliced cheese.

Put into the heated on the middle-upper rack and leave until the cheese is bubbly and golden.

TIP: Never leave anything on broil unatended. It's really hot and things can bake (brun) really fast.



There you go!

Croque-Monsieur

I felt like having this when I came home from work.

A delicious oven-baked sandwich.
This is a version of a treat my mom made sometimes. She always baked it in the oven. I found some recipes similar, where they fry them in a pan. I'm sure it would work, but it wouldn't be like mom's.

WHAT YOU NEED:

- 2 slices of bread
- Some ham
- 2 slices of cheese. Whichever one you like. I recommend either Swiss or Mozzarella.
- 1 egg
- Honey Mustard (optional)


Pre-heat the oven at 350F

Spread the mustard over the bread.
Put the cheese over the slices of bread and add the ham. Close the sandwich

Scramble the egg with a fork in a bowl. Soak both sides of the closed sandwich in it.

In an oven-proof plate, put in the oven on the middle rack.

Leave for about 15 minutes. Just keep checking that it isn't burning and that the bread turns a nice golden colour.

Just out of the oven

When it's done, take out and enjoy!

Mmmmmmm! Tasty and warm!
