Tuna Melts
This is one of our favorites, but wasn't as healthy as I'd like so I've recently tweaked it to be lower in fat.
Ingredients:
- 1 large can tuna in water
- 6-8 cherry tomatoes, diced
- 6-8 small dill pickles, diced (we like the jalapeño variety)
- 1/2 cup lite mayo (Estimated amount; I add a few teaspoons at a time until I like the consistency. You don't want it runny but you want to taste the mayo.)
- 1 cup low fat shredded cheddar cheese
- English muffins
- Garlic, pepper, or your favorite spices, to taste
Preparation:
- Toast the English muffins. Note: This recipe makes enough for 6-8 English muffin halves.
- Mix all ingredients but the English Muffins and half the cheese. This is a flexible recipe, so amounts and ingredients can vary.
- Top toasted muffins with about a quarter cup of the tuna mixture. Cover the entire surface for a little between 1/4 and 1/2 inch of topping.
- Top with remaining cheese.
- Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.
