Cheesy Baked Stuffed Tuna Melts image

This recipe takes the classic tuna melt and makes it even better! Kaiser rolls are stuffed with cheese and tuna, wrapped in foil and baked until melty and delicious! A must try for all sandwich, tuna, and cheese lovers out there! Feel free to adjust the amount of mayonnaise/cheese used. Also, in place of the capers you could try pimentos, olives, celery, etc. -- Experiment and enjoy. :)

Time 25m

Yield 4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (6 ounce) can chunk light tuna
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon capers, coursely chopped
2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
4 tablespoons cream cheese spread
4 slices tomatoes
4 tablespoons gouda cheese (or another mild cheese) or 4 tablespoons monterey jack cheese (or another mild cheese)
4 large kaiser rolls

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F
  • In a bowl, combine drained tuna, mayonnaise, lemon juice, capers and green onion. Set aside.
  • Cut a thin slice from top of each roll (save the tops for later!); hollow out inside, leaving about 1/2-inch thick shell.
  • Spread 1 tbsp cream cheese on bottom of each roll and then spoon tuna mixture evenly into each bun.
  • Top each bun with a tomato slice and then sprinkle a tbsp of grated mozzarella (or whichever cheese you are using) on top of the tomato.
  • Finally, place the top back on each roll. You may have to "smoosh" them down a bit. Wrap each bun in foil and bake for about 20-25 minutes. :).

I'm not a big fan of tuna salad, but I loved these tuna melts. The cheese and bread were the perfect complements to the tuna salad. I will definitely be making these again.
