Tuna mix included green olives, onion, pepperoncini, jalapeno, mayo, mustard. The bread is pumpernickel rye that I crusted with cotija cheese. For the cheese I went with smoked cheddar.

Was it tasty? Yes. The extra crunch from the cheese crust was amazing. I gotta use up this cotija before it goes bad and it is a perfect parmesan substitute for lots of things.

Cost was about $5.25 per person.

    We all learn things for the first time. Today I figured out that a cheese crusted sandwich is not just possible but adds that extra crunch that makes it awesome.

      That does make it tasty, I can stand to do a bit more of that too. Here’s my decadent unconventional (but extremely easy) sandwich topper - crunch-less, sadly, but could probably be improved with some cheese crustin.

      I like to melt some butter with red miso, about 50/50 or so? You’ll know the consistency after messing around a bit. Red miso is super dense flavor wise of course and also doesn’t mix easily, so yeah. Today I put it thinly on half a bagel, cream cheese on the other half, toasted, random stuff in between. You can add brown sugar to make it sweeter, or any kind of spice, also both lol.

        Meanwhile I couldn’t eat breakfast until after I made a batch of walnut, pecan and craisin granola because I was too busy buying a car for 8 hours yesterday to make it then. Didn’t get my breakfast until noon as a result.
