Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Set your oven to broil, or preheat it to 400°F (200°C) if you prefer to bake the sandwich.

- Take the slice of baguette and place it on a baking sheet.
- Spread the tuna mixture evenly on the slice of baguette.
- Top the tuna mixture with the shredded or sliced cheddar cheese.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven.
- If broiling, broil for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- If baking, bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Be sure to keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
- Remove the tuna melt from the oven and let it cool for a minute or two.
- Slice into desired portions, if necessary, and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Use high-quality canned tuna for the best flavor.
- Toast the baguette slices slightly before adding the toppings to prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Opt for sharp cheddar cheese for a more pronounced cheese flavor.
- If you like a bit of spice, add a dash of hot sauce or some finely chopped jalapeños to the tuna mixture.
- Serve with a side salad or some chips for a more complete meal.
