Рецепт Grilled Tuna and Cheese Sandwich

This delicious recipe is sponsored by StarKist.

The grilled cheese sandwich is a classic American staple food. Grilled cheese is good for lunch, dinner and a late night snack. I put a spin on this classic American dish using tuna.

When I’m yearning for a little something extra or looking for a late night snack, I make a Grilled Tuna and Cheese Sandwich with the Sweet & Spicy flavor of StarKist Tuna Creations. It’s the perfect sandwich when I want something savory yet sweet.

Most StarKist tuna pouches are 110 calories so any of them would be perfect to add to a regular grilled cheese sandwich. (My recipe calls for Starkist Tuna Creations Sweet & Spicy which is 90 calories!)

First, I make a basic tuna salad mixing a single pouch of StarKist Tuna Creations Sweet & Spicy with a little bit of mayo, relish, onion, egg and mustard.

Grilled Tuna and Cheese Sandwich

Keep in mind, this sandwich can be eaten at dinner with coleslaw, fries or your favorite side dish.

Ingredients

Instructions

make the grilled cheese sandwich next. To make the sandwich, I set the tuna to the side and gather a slice of cheese (American or cheddar), two slices of wheat bread, and a tablespoon and a half of butter or margarine, (You can also use non-stick spray to cut calories.)

I drop a tablespoon of the butter or margarine (or non-stick spray) in a medium-hot skillet. I spread the leftover butter or margarine on one side of each slice of bread.

I then place one slice of bread into the skillet with the buttered side down and then place the cheese on top. Once the cheese has started to melt, I spoon the tuna on the cheese, placing a slice of bread on top with the buttered side up. I flip over the sandwich to brown the bread on the opposite side. When each side of the bread is golden brown I remove the sandwich.

Slice and enjoy!
