Chicago Heights Tuna Melt

• 1 can of good quality tuna fish, preferably albacore (of course).
• Mayonnaise
• Banana Peppers (your preferred degree of heat)
• Sliced black olives.
• Poppy seed dressing.
• Sliced tomatoes.
• Fresh, Baby Spinach
• Smoked Provolone
• Ground, dried Oregano Flakes
• Fresh, whole loaf, Italian Bread.

1. Mix tuna with mayonnaise to your taste.
2. Slice several inches off of a loaf of Italian break, then slice it in two to produce two halves, like a bun, with crust on outside of both pieces and white in middle.
3. Spread one side with tuna.
4. Top tuna with slices of provolone.
5. Heat in toaster oven on aluminum foil, or put the open faced sandwich on a cookie sheet and heat beneath a broiler, watching it carefully to avoid burning it.
6. Remove from broiler when cheese melts and top with tomatoes, sliced olives, and banana peppers.
7. Squeeze a little of the poppy seed dressing on top, then sprinkle just a little oregano along the body of the sandwich.
8. Close it up and enjoy!
