Dinner #6: Tuna Melts and Asparagus

Tuesday, March 3, 2009: Still working on getting rid of the sourdough boule. I have a feeling the next few dinners will all include bread as an ingredient some way or another. For a change though, Emily made dinner instead of me. See the tuna in process below.



Dinner was also very low key last night as we were meeting (virtually) with Dave Cerchio (no online profile that I could find) to do some financial planning. Dave is a friend, financial planner, and all around smart guy. It gives me a little heart to hear the he is equally befuddled by the behavior of the stock market. But that story is for another place... Back to the food thing.

My favorite part about this meal is that our oven's propensity to go to whatever temperature it wants - no matter where you set the dial - doesn't really matter. Rub olive oil, salt, pepper on asparagus, stick in oven, check occasionally, pull out when done. Pretty much the same goes for the tuna melt. Simple, quick, & tasty. How can you argue with that?
