Poor Tuna Fish

5-0.

Did ya hear me?

5-0.

Life in New Orleans is seemingly perfect right now. The weather is finally glorious. Children frolic in the streets. People smile at each other and yell Who Dat to perfect strangers. And, hell, we’ve even seen a drop in murders. We can attribute all of this to our undefeated team. They have brought sunshine back to our lives and we thank them every day for it. Now, if we can do something about that dad gum wildcat offense, we’ll be sitting real purdy.

This Sunday’s game with the Dolphins is fraught with stories. Drew Brees returns to the city that gave him a less than favorable welcome in 2006 (I’m shocked that Nick Saban would do something like that). Rickey Williams plays against the team that drafted him, made him lay off his wacky-tobaccy (a damn shame), and forced him to wear a wedding gown (possibly one of the more masculine moments in his life). And, the student meets the mentor: Sean Payton will face Bill “Tuna” Parcells.

For this week, I decided to share with you a little sandwich, something tasty and light, much like the Dolphins and their college-like, gimmicky offense.

Enjoy this Tuna Meltdown as we see Parcells implode while our boys go to 6-0.

6-0, did ya hear me?

Bon Appetit mon petits poules.

Tuna Meltdown

1 can of tuna (preferably Chicken of the Sea—isn’t that what the Dolphins are?)
1 tablespoon of mayonnaise
1 tablespoon of relish (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste
American cheese
2 slices of bread

In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Put a pat of butter on one side of each piece of bread and place the American cheese on top of one slice. Place in a frying pan and allow the bread to brown and the cheese to melt. Remove from pan and place the tuna on it. It’s absolutely delicious with some soup or by itself. Either way, the Tuna will have a meltdown come Sunday.
