ENGLISH CHEESE MELTS

We served this to one of our picky-eater friends. And she loved it! Better yet, while it is meant as an appetizer, we were treating it as a side. But there were leftovers, and she suggested that they'd make a great base for a breakfast sandwich (we have egg-frying forms that fit English muffins). She was right -- they were...

Ingredients

6 english muffins
4 1/2 oz sliced olives
1 1/2 c grated cheddar cheese
1/2 c thinly sliced green onions
1/2 c mayonnaise
salt

Steps:

1. Cut English muffins in half. Set aside.
2. In large bowl, mix together olives, cheese, onions, mayonnaise, and salt.
3. Spread mixture evenly over 12 muffin halves. Place on baking sheet.
4. Broil 3 - 4 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly and melted.
5. Cut in half before serving.
6. ***Leftovers can be used as the base for an egg sandwich for breakfast -- simply fry up egg using the English muffin egg form and cutting as needed.

Tips:

Choose the right cheese. Different cheeses melt differently, so be sure to select the ones that will give you the desired result. For a gooey, stretchy melt, choose cheeses like mozzarella, cheddar, or fontina. If you want a crispy, bubbly melt, try Parmesan, Gruyère, or manchego.
Grate your cheese finely. This will help it melt evenly and smoothly.
Use a good quality bread. A sturdy bread that can hold up to the melted cheese is best. Try a French baguette, sourdough, or ciabatta.
Spread the cheese evenly over the bread. This will help prevent it from clumping up in one spot.
Broil the cheese melts until they are golden brown and bubbly. This will ensure that the cheese is melted all the way through.
Serve the cheese melts immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and gooey.
