Ingredients

  • 4 1" thick Slices of Sourdough Bread or other crusty bread
  • 2 5oz cans Flaked Light Tuna drained
  • 6 tbsp. Real Mayonnaise
  • ⅛ tsp. Ground Black Pepper
  • ⅛ tsp. Paprika
  • ¼ tsp. Onion Powder
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450F and line a sheet pan with a silicone liner or parchment paper.
  • Slice 1” thick slices of sourdough bread or another crusty bread. Lay four slices on your parchment, evenly spaced.
  • In a small bowl, combine 2 drained cans of tuna and the mayonnaise. Mix well. Add the seasonings and mix again.
  • Spread the tuna mixture evenly on all 4 slices of bread.
  • Top with ¼ cup of shredded cheese each, keeping the cheese to the middle of the bread so it doesn’t melt off.
  • Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the tuna is bubbly, cheese is melted, and bread toasted lightly.
  • Slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

We like to serve a simple veggie side of peas and carrots with tuna melts. This keeps your side dish easy peasy!
