Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Tuna Mixture

    In a medium bowl, combine the canned tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped celery, chopped red onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Take two slices of whole grain bread and spread a generous amount of the tuna mixture on each slice. Top with lettuce leaves and slices of tomato. Place the remaining slices of bread on top to complete the sandwiches.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush the grill with olive oil to prevent sticking.

  2. 4

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Place the assembled sandwiches on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Press down slightly with a spatula for even grilling.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the grill, let them cool for a minute, then cut in half and serve warm.
