Sausage Melts

Directions

1. 1
   Peel and slice onion into thin rounds (or half rounds)and cook in olive oil over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they are very soft.
2. 2
   Meanwhile, form sausage meat into 4 thin patties.
3. 3
   Try to form them so that they are slightly bigger than the bread slices since they will shrink when you cook them.
4. 4
   When the onions are soft add the brown sugar and the vinegar.
5. 5
   Stir and cook until the onions are browned.
6. 6
   Fry sausage patties in a pan (use a little extra oil if your pan isn't non-stick) for about 3 to 5 minutes per side until cooked through or to your desired doneness (we like them very brown).
7. 7
   Meanwhile, spread dijon mustard on each slice of bread in desired amounts.
8. 8
   Top each slice of bread with a cooked sausage patty, then the onions, then the cheese.
9. 9
   Place under the broiler (set to low so it won't cook too fast or burn) until cheese is melted and bubbling.
