I like to add a little bit of chopped red onion to the tuna mixture. It adds a nice crunch and a bit of extra flavor.

I've tried this recipe with different types of bread, and I think sourdough works the best. It's sturdy enough to hold up to the tuna mixture, but it's also soft and flavorful.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time. I also think it would be good to use a higher quality tuna. Overall, it's a good starting point, but it needs a few tweaks to make it really great
