Ingredients
Scale
- 2 x 5 oz cans Tuna (canned, drained)
- 1 medium Onion (chopped)
- 1/2 stalk Celery (chopped)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon Parsley (chopped)
- 3-4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
- 1/3 cup Mozzarella (shredded)
- 4 slices Bread (sliced)
- Butter (softened, to taste)
- Salt and Pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Prepare the Tuna Mixture: Combine the drained tuna, chopped onion, celery, minced garlic, parsley, mayonnaise, mozzarella, and olive oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Assemble and Grill: Heat a non-stick skillet with one tablespoon of olive oil. Butter one side of a slice of bread, place it butter-side-down in the skillet, and add two tablespoons of tuna mixture. Top with another slice of bread (buttered side up).
- Cook to Perfection: Toast until golden brown, then flip and cook the other side until golden and cheese is melted, about 3-5 minutes.
Notes
Serve with a fresh salad or tomato soup for a complete meal. Consider using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a healthier twist.
