The Tuna Melt Of My Dreams
I live for this sharp cheddar tuna melt. It's so flavorful and crunchy, with a pickle-y tuna salad, melty cheddar and greens. Best lunch ever!
Ingredients
- 10 ounces tuna packed in water, drained
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet relish
- 1 tablespoons dill relish
- 1 teaspoon dijon
- ΒΌ teaspoon dried dill
- kosher salt and pepper
- thick-sliced sourdough bread
- 4 to 6 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- pickled onions
- arugula or baby spinach
- softened butter for spreading
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the tuna with the mayo, relish, dijon, dill and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until combined. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed.
- To make the tuna melts, spread the outsides of the bread with softened butter. Place the cheddar slices on the insides of the bread, top with a few spoonfuls of the tuna mixture, then top with pickled onions and greens.
- Cook in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until the bread is golden and toasty and the cheese is melted. Serve!
