Tuna Melt

I spent my whole morning cleaning the kitchen and trying to make it smell better by throwing baking soda and lemon juice all over the place. Naturally, half way through I got bored of cleaning and decided to stink up the entire place with tuna, which I don't even like.

I guess my decision to make tuna was influenced by my brother. He likes to remind me whenever he gets the chance that I have a very unhealthy diet with zero variety. Whenever my family goes out for dinner he'll leap at the opportunity to use my order (which is almost always french fries) as evidence. I basically force feed myself horrible things when he's around to make him proud.
One of the things he insists I should eat more of is tuna. I think tuna is the grossest thing ever invented, and until today I stayed away from it at all costs. But lately I've been hearing a lot of hype about tuna melts and how they are the best comfort food ever. Since I really love grilled cheese sandwiches I thought maybe I could silence my brother once and for all if I just snuck some tuna in there.

Tuna melts are not grilled cheese sandwiches.

They are salty (I don't know WHY most recipes call for salt and pepper, as I'm pretty sure tuna just soaks in a can of salt for its entire shelf life), mushy, slimy, smelly, and just altogether bad.

Then again, I was the one that made this sandwich so I suppose I shouldn't assume all tuna melts are gross.
Anyway, here's the recipe for those of you who (god forbid) want to make a tuna melt just like mine.

- 2 slices of bread
- 1 can of tuna
- mayo
- dijon mustard
- one slice any kind of cheese, I used marble because I can never decide between mozzarella or cheddar
- two slices of tomato
- butter

Melt a fair amount of butter on a pan and put one slice of bread on the pan. Put a slice of cheese on the bread and while that starts to sizzle make a tuna salad. Put tuna in a bowl and mix in some mayo and dijon mustard. I think I used more mustard than tuna which is something you want to avoid doing. Once your tuna salad is ready put it on top of the cheese and throw your sliced tomatoes on top of the tuna. Put on another slice of bread and by this time the sandwich should be ready to flip. Flip your sandwich, let the other side get golden brown or burnt, (whatever you like/what your cooking skills will allow), and your disgusting lunch will be ready.
