Cook the Tuna Melt
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter. Once melted, place the sandwich in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown. Flip the sandwich, add the remaining cheese on top, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese is melted.

Serve
