ELT SANDWICHES WITH BASIL MAYONNAISE
An ELT is like a BLT, but with one obvious caveat - it uses eggs instead of bacon. Of course, bacon is great when you're craving something hearty and it adds a nice crispy texture to sandwiches, but if you're a vegetarian or if you just hate dealing with a bacon-greased pan, eggs are a welcome substitute. The runny, creamy yolk gives the sandwich a rich, buttery appeal while the crisp lettuce and fresh tomato keep things on the lighter side. Lather the bread with homemade basil mayonnaise and you've got a meal fit for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

CLASSIC PATTY MELT
A quick, easy, and basic recipe for patty melts. I used Jewish rye bread but any bread will work as long as it's rye. I double the cheese but feel free to use 1 slice per patty melt.

Steps:
- Season ground beef with salt and pepper and divide into 3 equal-sized balls. Shape each ball as close as possible to the shape of the bread. Make an indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and divide into 3 equal portions. Place beef patties into the same skillet and cook until desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, spread 1 teaspoons mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.
- Place bread mayonnaise side-down in the skillet. Top with 1 slice of cheese, 1 beef patty, 1/3 of the onions, a second slice of cheese, and another slice of bread, mayonnaise side up. Cook bread until golden brown and cheese has started to melt, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip each sandwich over and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes.
