I’m tired. Really, really tired. I’m sure many of you can relate. You work hard all week, and then you spend weekends catching up on household chores, preparing for the week ahead, and so on and so on... For those nights when time is not your friend, try this easy, delicious tuna melt.
Tuna Melts
1 (12 oz.) can white Albacore tuna, drained and flaked
2 tablespoons minced onions
1 – 2 tablespoons good mayo
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice (half of a lemon)
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
¼ - ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
Hot sauce, to taste
Fresh ground pepper, to taste
4 slices whole grain bread, toasted
Roasted red peppers or sliced, seeded tomatoes, blotted dry and lightly salted
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Preheat broiler.
Combine tuna and next 9 ingredients. Place salted red peppers or tomatoes on bread slices, and spread each with ¼ of the tuna mixture. Top with about 3 tablespoons of grated cheese per melt. Broil until hot and cheese is bubbly.
