FRENCH-STYLE TUNA MELT
Tapenade was not even a word in my vocabulary, much less my cuisine. I tried this recipe, however, from the Rachel Ray website and was delighted with the new flavor. I had grown tried of traditional tuna fIsh salad, but believe it or not, I enjoyed this variation so much that I added tuna fish into my diet again as a healthy food choice.

Steps:
- Preheat broiler to medium heat.
- Remove most of the soft bread "guts" from each side of the baguette and place on a cookie sheet. Transfer the sheet to the oven and broil until golden, about 1-2 minutes.
- Once the bread is toasted, combine the tuna, tapenade, lemon juice, EVOO, shallot, parsley, and thyme in a bowl and season with a little black pepper.
- Spread the tuna mixture over the dug-out part of the toasted baguette. Top with the sliced tomatoes and Brie Cheese and place under the broiler until the cheese has melted.
- Another variety of cheese such as Swiss or Mozzarella tastes great as a substitution, if Brie Cheese is not preferred.
ULTIMATE TUNA MELTS
Steps:
- In a medium bowl, flake the tuna finely with a fork. Add the celery, scallions, and dill, and continue mixing and fluffing with the fork until combined. Add the lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Combine the mayonnaise and anchovy paste, if using, and mix into the tuna.
- Preheat the broiler. Toast the bread in a toaster and place the slices in a single layer on a sheet pan. Spread a quarter of the tuna mixture thickly and evenly on each piece of bread, covering the entire slice. Sprinkle the cheese evenly on the 4 sandwiches, covering the tuna completely. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes, just until the cheese melts and starts to brown. (Watch it carefully!) Sprinkle with the microgreens and serve hot.
TUNA MELT
Steps:
- Preheat the broiler and set the rack about 4 to 5 inches from the heat source.
- Spread the bread out on a baking sheet and toast. Spread the toasted muffins or bread with the mayonnaise, if using. Top with the Tuna Salad and then the shredded cheese. Place the baking sheet under the broiler and heat for 3 to 5 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
- In a small mixing bowl break up the tuna with a fork. Toss with the celery, onion, and parsley. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, and season with pepper to taste. Stir to combine. Add lemon juice, if using.
TUNA MELT ON FRENCH BREAD
This is a very simple sandwich that I love. My mom would make this for the family for lunch or dinner. All of us kids loved it. It is now one of my fiance's favorite meals that he request for his birthday which is great because it is so easy to make. I hope you will try this and enjoy it as much as I do!
