Best Tuna Melt Sandwich Recipes
OPEN-FACED TUNA MELT SANDWICH
To take a tuna melt from good to great, it has to have all the right components. In other words, plain mayo alone won't cut it. Here's how we do it: open-faced with crusty toasted bread, melty cheese, capers, cornichons, Dijon mustard, and plenty of seasoning. On a chilly fall day, nothing tastes better.

Steps:
- Set the oven to broil and move the rack to the highest position.

- Broil tuna melts until cheese is golden brown and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes. Serve warm.

OPEN FACE TUNA MELT SANDWICH
These have become a quick dinner staple. They are sooo good, and comes together in minutes. You can change the type of cheese, but I've found that something with a stronger flavor that melts well, is best. The type of bread I use is called Saloio and is similar to Ciabbata (Saloio is a portuguese bread readily available at our supermarket bakery).

KITTENCAL'S TUNA MELT SANDWICH
Trust me you will be craving this often once you try it! --- you may use regular white salt but the seasoned salt is better, also use as much cheese and tomato slices as desired, I sometimes add in some chopped sweet yum yum pickles to the tuna filling too --- low-fat mayonnaise and cheese may be used :)
