. Tuna Melt Recipe
One of my favorite nostalgic comfort foods is a toasty tuna melt. It’s always on my list to order at a diner, but it’s simple and easy to prepare at home. It’s a great way to take my classic tuna salad and transform it into a delicious leveled-up grilled cheese sandwich. It only takes a few minutes to cook for a quick lunch or dinner.
My tuna melt sandwich recipe starts with thick slices of bread and layers of cheddar cheese, juicy tomatoes, and a creamy protein-packed filling. Buttering the bread ensures golden brown and crisp pieces. Serve with a side of potato wedges, crispy chips, or a dill pickle.
