Tuna Sandwich Without Mayo image

I can't eat mayo, so I never really liked tuna until one day I tried making it like this. It's really simple, but a great alternative if you don't like mayo.

Time 15m

Yield 1 sandwich, 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 slices bread
2 tablespoons cream cheese with chives
2 1/2 ounces tuna
1 slice provolone cheese
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine

Steps:

  • Heat a frying pan to medium heat.
  • Spread one slice of bread with cream cheese.
  • Top with tuna.
  • Add the provolone on top of the tuna.
  • Top with second slice of bread.
  • Butter the outside slices of the sandwich and grill in the pan like a grilled cheese sandwich.
  • Another option is to grill in a panini maker.
  • A quicker and perhaps lighter option is to toast the bread in a toaster before assembling the sandwich and then microwave for 30 seconds or so just enough to melt the cheese.
  • You can experiment with different cheeses--I have used Swiss, Munster and sharp cheddar as well.
  • You can change the cream cheese to plain or veggie as well.
  • If the tuna is still to "dry" for you, try mixing 1-2 tablespoons sour cream with the tuna before assembling the sandwich.
