These can be prepared as open-faced or closed sandwiches, and on any type of toasted bread. This is written for open-faced sandwiches, if you desire closed, just double the toasted bread. Whoever created this sandwich deserves a medal.

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

FOR THE SALAD
1 can(s) tuna in water, drained
1 stalk(s) celery, diced
1 spring onion, sliced
1/3 c mayo
1 tsp dijon mustard
1/2 tsp lemon or lime juice
salt and pepper as desired
FOR THE SANDWICH
2 slice bread, your choice
fresh tomato slices
cheddar cheese, slices or shredded

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat your oven to 200 C (400 F), line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Toast two slices of bread, place the toast on the parchment paper.
  • 2. In a mixing bowl, add the Tuna Salad ingredients.
  • 3. Mix together the salad, and at this point we have a really nice tuna salad that would make a nice cold sandwich on its own, but why stop here.
  • 4. Next item needed, fresh tomatoes, I used two Tor tomatoes with three thick slices each.
  • 5. Top the toast with equal portions of the tuna salad, then top that with 1-3 slices of tomato (depends on how big your tomato is), then top that with 1-2 slices of cheese or shredded cheese to your liking (I used a 4 blend pizza cheese).
  • 6. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted, enjoy.

These tuna melts were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

These tuna melts were delicious! I used a whole wheat bread and added some chopped celery to the tuna salad. They were so good, I ate two!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tuna melts turned out really soggy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

These tuna melts were a bit dry. I think I'll add some mayonnaise to the tuna salad next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tuna salad, but I really enjoyed these tuna melts. The bread was perfectly toasted and the cheese was melted just right.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tuna melts turned out great! The bread was crispy, the tuna salad was creamy, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

These tuna melts were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some chopped celery and onion to the tuna salad next time.
