HOW TO MAKE A TUNA MELT
This is dedicated to all those chefs who tell you to never, ever mix fish and cheese together; and yet there they are, at the diner at 2:00 in the morning. And you know what they eat? Tuna melts. And the reason they do is because it is delicious.

Steps:
- Place tuna into a mixing bowl and lightly break apart with a fork. Add green onion, celery, capers, chile paste, and mayonnaise. Pinch small pieces from mozzarella cheese into the tuna salad and stir to mix. Season with salt and black pepper; refrigerate tuna salad until needed.
- Heat oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Spread butter generously on both sides of French bread slices.
- Broil buttered bread until golden brown on top, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip bread slices and broil other side until toasted, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove from oven and turn bread slices over on the baking sheet so the darkest sides are on the bottom.
- Gently spread tuna salad onto bread slices using 2 forks. Press the salad onto the bread and spread tuna all the way to the edges of the bread. Spread shredded sharp Cheddar over each sandwich. Dust tops with cayenne pepper.
- Place sandwiches under broiler and cook until cheese is melted and bubbling, 5 to 6 minutes.

TUNA MELT WITH EGG
I got this recipe when I was working at a restaurant, when I was a teenager, that is no longer in business. I like the tuna salad in it because it is a little different then most. And this sandwich is just a little different then most. I serve this with small relish tray of olives, pickles or cucumbers, green onions, pickled beets, pickled okra, and sliced tomatoes. Plus a salad of some sort, like a corn salad or pasta salad.

GREEK LEFTOVERS TUNA MELT
I invented this JUST now. I LOVED it! Great (and TASTY & SIMPLE) way to get rid of the extra hummus, capers, and sundried tomatoes that you don't know what to do with. Yummy! I used Laura Divine's Low Fat Hummus (40517). Can be easily multiplied and easily make substitutions (canned chicken, salmon, etc...or change the cheese, veggies, spices...the possibilities are endless! Maybe vegans can even sub tofu)

EMERIL'S KICKED-UP TUNA MELT
Looking for an interesting tuna melt, I wandered into the Food Network where I found this little gem of Emeril's which I slightly adapted to suit my 'buds. Even my tuna-averse husband loved them! I omit the tomatoes for personal preference, but have left them in the recipe. Please note that while I'm leaving the recipe yield and ingredient quantities the same as the original, I actually got twice as many open-faced sandwiches!
