This is a homemade recipe of the classical Alsatian Christmas cookies bredele with hazelnuts. They are so easy and delicious, so it is almost impossible not to prepare twice as many the next time you make them. You can make them in any shape you like but the flat round ones are the typical way to make them.
It is not so usual to cook tuna together with soy sauce, bacon and olives, but it gives a nice flavor combination. If the soy sauce makes it to salty, you can add some white wine to make it less strong. The tuna fits together with rice or fresh mushrooms on the side.
A classical omelet is made with only eggs. This omelet is different both by containing tomatoes, ham, onion and cheese, and for its different shape. This is a way to enhance the flavor of the actual omelet itself and not by serving the ingredients on the side. It is a good idea to serve this omelet as lunch or for a lighter dinner together with a salad on the side.
