Recipe

Tuna Melt

Ingredients

Rinse and dice celery. Rinse, core, and cut tomato into 4 thick slices.
Rinse lemon and cut in half. In a small bowl, squeeze juice. Discard seeds.
In a colander, drain tuna.
Grate cheese.
In a medium bowl, add tuna. Flake apart with a fork. Add celery, lemon juice, mayonnaise, and black pepper. Mix with fork until combined. If using dried herbs and hot sauce, stir in now.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 slices of bread. Cook until toasted on bottom, about 5 minutes. Remove from the pan. Repeat with the other 2 slices. Remove the pan from heat.
On the toasted side of each bread slice, add ½ cup tuna salad. Top with tomato slices and sprinkle with cheese (about 2 tablespoons each).
Return the skillet to medium heat. Place 2 sandwiches in the skillet. Cover and cook until the cheese is melted and the underside is browned, about 3–5 minutes. Remove from the pan. Repeat with the other 2 sandwiches.
