Tuna Salad

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make Tuna Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the canned tuna, mayonnaise, chopped celery, red onion, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Prepare Sandwiches

    Spread a generous amount of the tuna salad on one slice of your chosen bread. Top with a slice of cheese, then place another slice of bread on top to form a sandwich.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little butter or oil to the pan. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm with your choice of side.
