Grilled Cheese

 

 

Serves 4, and it takes about 30 minutes to cook.

Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces mild cheddar cheese shredded (about 2 cups)
  • 8 slices white bread (or whole-wheat)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preheat oven to 200°F. Assemble four servings, each filled with 1/2 cup of the shredded cheddar. Press lightly.

 

Working with 2 servings at a time, put oil in a 12-inch cast-iron or non-stick pan. Make sure oil is evenly distributed in the pan. To ensure bread gets oiled, you can lightly brush oil on each slice of bread before you place it in the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes or until golden brown and flip over to cook the other side until golder brown about 4 minutes.

Transfer them to a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in oven while cooking the remaining meals.

Tuna is one of best fish that we can eat 2-3 times a week. It contains high omega-3 fatty acids that is good for our health, and it is an excellent food to keep our mind healthy.

Ingredients:

  • tuna salad (use the above recipe)
  • 4 slices white bread or English muffins
  • 1 tomato, sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 4 slices of Swiss cheddar, or American cheese

 

Adjust an oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler element and heat the broiler. Arrange the bread on a rimmed baking sheet. Toast the bread under the broiler until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Spread about 1/2 cup of the tuna salad over each slice of toast, and top with sliced tomato, then the cheese. Broil until the cheese has melted and is beginning to brown, 3 to 6 minutes.
