- Juice of half lemon

Method
* Combine all the ingredients, and season with black pepper, and fresh herbs if you have them.

This will keep a day or two in the fridge in an airtight container.
Alternatives
* Add cooked beans, or a can of kidney beans, drained.

[NB] Canned tuna in brine is much cheaper than in water. If you wish to use tuna in brine, drain off all the liquid carefully and ensure you do not add any salt.

Ingredients
- a baguette or french bread
- pasta sauce either from a jar or your own (Crushed tomatoes, puree and garlic)
- grated cheese
- Toppings: Sliced mushrooms, peppers, onion, chilli slices, ham, pepperoni etc etc
Directions
You get a baguette or french bread, whichever you wanna call it. Cut it lengthways and
in half so you have pieces around ten inches long. Spread on a pasta sauce either from a jar or your own (Crushed
tomatoes, puree and garlic) cover with a layer of grated cheese, then add your required topping. Suggestions
are… Sliced mushrooms, peppers, onion, chilli slices, ham, pepperoni etc etc. sprinkle a bit more cheese over
the top and grill for about 5 minutes or so on a low heat until the cheese has melted. If you prefer your topping
to be soft, I.e peppers and onions then you can cook these off a bit first to soften. Thats basically it. Very
very easy and quick if you are in a rush
