Ingredients

  • 1 (6 ounce) can canned tuna
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 1 dill pickle, diced
  • 1/4 small onion, finely diced
  • salt & pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
  • 1 small tomatoes, finely sliced
  • 1/4 cup grated cheese, of your choice
  • 2 slices bread

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, add the mayo, mustard, salt, pepper & spice. Mix with a fork.
  • Finely dice the onion & dill pickle, and add to the bowl.
  • Add the tuna, well drained, to the mixture.
  • With a fork, mix well, ensuring the tuna is saturated with mayo & mustard, and the pickles & onion are evenly distributed. Adjust spice as necessary.
  • Slice the tomato into very thin slices, removing seeds. Place slices on a paper towel to absorb moisture (you don't want soggy bread).
  • Toast bread, slightly lighter than you prefer.
  • Divide tuna salad mixture in half, and scoop on top of the toast. Spread the mixture evenly.
  • Place tomato slices on top of tuna mixture.
  • Sprinkle grated cheese on to toast.
  • Place toast onto a cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 5 - 10 minutes, until cheese is bubbly.
  • Enjoy!
