Tuna Melt

Ingredients


  • 1 5-ounce can no-salt-added water-packed tuna, drained
  • 1 small celery stalk, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped jarred roasted red pepper
  • 1 scallion, minced
  • 3 tablespoons low-fat plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
  • 4 teaspoons mayonnaise or softened butter
  • 4 slices whole-grain bread
  • 2 slices sharp Cheddar cheese

Description

  1. Stir tuna, celery, roasted red pepper, scallion, yogurt, mustard and pepper together in a medium bowl until well blended.

  2. Spread 1 teaspoon mayonnaise (or butter) on one side of each slice of bread. Flip 2 of the slices and top each with half of the tuna mixture, 1 slice cheese and another slice of bread, mayonnaise-side up.

  3. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook, turning once, until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Serve immediately.
