• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 cup Gruyere cheese, grated
• 4 oz salted butter

3. In a large bowl, mix the crab meat, mustard, mayo, salt, and cheese.
4. Melt the butter and with a basting brush, brush the top side of each toast, then place about 1 tablespoon of the crab mixture on top of each toast.
5. Place the crab meltaways on a non-stick cookie sheet, or a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper. Cook in the oven for approximately 10 minutes, until the cheese has fully melted.
6. Serve warm, sprinkled with microgreens and halved baby heirloom tomatoes.
