The other day, I was doing grocery shopping. Walked down the isle with the Spam and it called my name. How long had it been since I had bought a can of Spam? In a moment of weakness, I picked up the can (less sodium of course) and placed it in the shopping cart. Once home, I pondered what to do with it. With an abundance of fresh tomatoes on the kitchen counter this sounded like a logical choice. The beauty of this recipe is you can make them 1 or 2 at a time and save the sliced Spam in the refrigerator for another day or make all 6 at once and share with friends and family. :) Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) can spam |
1 -2 large tomato, sliced into 6 (1/2 inch thick) |
6 tablespoons parmigiano-reggiano cheese, grated |
black pepper |
6 english muffins, split, toasted |
6 basil leaves |
dijon mustard |
Directions:
1. Slice the Spam into 6 even slices and place in a dry, non-stick skillet; cook until lightly browned, turning once.
2. Place the tomato slices on a foil-lined cookie sheet, top with grated cheese and place under the broiler until cheese is melted.
3. To assemble: Place the Spam slices on 6 of the muffin halves, top with a tomato slice, black pepper and a basil leaf.
4. Spread the remaining half of muffin with Dijon mustard to suit your taste, place on top of all and enjoy.
