1
Prepare the Tuna Salad
In a medium bowl, combine the canned tuna (drained), mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped celery, chopped red onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2
Prepare the Bread
Take two slices of whole grain bread and place them on a clean surface.
3
Assemble the Melt
Spread a generous amount of the tuna salad mixture on one slice of bread. Place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of the tuna salad, then cover with the other slice of bread.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly butter the outer sides of the sandwich. Place the sandwich in the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
5
Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, cut in half, and serve warm.
