Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (5 oz) Canned tuna packed in water
- 2 tablespoons Light mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Celery, finely diced
- 1 tablespoon Red onion, finely diced
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 slices Whole grain bread
- 2 tablespoons Reduced-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 spray Butter-flavored cooking spray
Instructions
Open the can of tuna and drain it thoroughly.
In a small bowl, combine the drained tuna, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, diced celery, diced red onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy tuna salad.
Lay one slice of whole grain bread on a clean surface. Spread the tuna mixture evenly on top.
Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese evenly over the tuna mixture.
Top with the second slice of whole grain bread to form a sandwich.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spray the skillet lightly with butter-flavored cooking spray.
Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool slightly before cutting it in half. Serve warm and enjoy!
