Brutti Ma Buoni

Reminded me of the Phantom of the Opera's mask, pallid and somewhat sinister. Or Casper the Friendly Ghost's evil twin. Nothing ugly about the taste, however, and it made a nice change of pace to our normal cold lunches.

A melted sandwich with Swiss cheese, wheatberry toast and tuna salad made with lovely olive-oil packed tuna, celery, green onion, lemon juice and a soupçon of mayo.
Briefly under the broiler until the cheese sags and even browns, if you want.

Brutti ma buoni - ugly but good.

A warm sandwich just sounds so nice. Even though it's summer.

Louis, if you hold the tuna, you have a grilled cheese sandwich - not a bad option.

Cookiecrumb, it got sunny here around 2pm but still really cold. I actually bumped up the heat after lunch!
