Tuna Sandwich Without Mayo

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

  • 2 slices bread
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese with chives
  • 2 1/2 ounces tuna
  • 1 slice provolone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Recipe

  • 1 heat a frying pan to medium heat.
  • 2 spread one slice of bread with cream cheese.
  • 3 top with tuna.
  • 4 add the provolone on top of the tuna.
  • 5 top with second slice of bread.
  • 6 butter the outside slices of the sandwich and grill in the pan like a grilled cheese sandwich.
  • 7 another option is to grill in a panini maker.
  • 8 a quicker and perhaps lighter option is to toast the bread in a toaster before assembling the sandwich and then microwave for 30 seconds or so just enough to melt the cheese.
  • 9 you can experiment with different cheeses--i have used swiss, munster and sharp cheddar as well.
  • 10 you can change the cream cheese to plain or veggie as well.
  • 11 if the tuna is still to "dry" for you, try mixing 1-2 tablespoons sour cream with the tuna before assembling the sandwich.
