Tasty Tuna Melts

I love a good tuna melt! They're tasty, quick, and cheap to make. The best part is you can adapt this recipe to whatever sounds good or you have on hand. Choose the bread, and cheese, and your toppings. I prefer an english muffin or sourdough bread, but other variations include hot dog bun or tortilla. If a hot dog bun is used it's called a tuna boat! My favorite cheese to use is cheddar or swiss. Serve as a sandwich or open face.

2 slices of sourdough bread
1 can tuna, drained
2 tablespoons mayo
Pinch of salt and pepper
Thin slices of cheddar cheese
1 small avocado, sliced
1/2 tomato, sliced

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

In a small bowl mix together tuna, mayo, salt and pepper. Place bread slices on cookie sheet. Spread tuna mixture on bread. Layer slices of cheese on top of tuna mixture. Bake until cheese is melted, about 7 minutes. Remove cookie sheet and add avocado and tomato.
