6 oz canned water-packed solid tuna
1/4 cup prepared hummus
1 cup fresh spinach leaves
1 cop carrots
1 tsp cumin
8 slices multi-grain bread
1/2 cup low-fat milk
1 large egg
2 large egg whites
1 tbsp olive oil

Steps:

Press all liquid from tuna. Crumble tuna into bowl. Add hummus, finely shredded spinach, grated carrots and cumin, then mix thoroughly. Make four sandwiches with bread and tuna mixture. In shallow bowl, whisk together milk, egg and egg whites. Dip one side of first sandwich, then the other side, then repeat with of remaining 3, until lightly soaked. You should use up all of egg mixture. In large nonstick skillet (or two medium nonstick skillets) over very low heat, heat oil. Add sandwiches and cover skillet loosely with lid or piece of foil. Cook until undersides are well-browned, 8-10 minutes. Turn sandwiches and cook, still covered, until browned on other side, about 8 minutes more.
