Yummy sandwich idea
Do you ever have those days that you are trying to come up with something different for dinner, but you want it to be quick and light? I came up with an idea for a sandwich that my family loved. Since it was such a big hit, I figured I would share it with you all.
It is a tuna salad sandwich with baby greens on a whole wheat roll. This is how I made it:
I mixed up a big can of premium tuna (drained) with some mayonnaise, brown mustard, sweet relish, a little bit of honey, a squeeze of fresh lemon, some cracked black pepper and a touch of hot pepper sauce. For the greens, I used fancy baby greens (Spring Mix) and tossed them in some balsamic vinaigrette with some feta cheese crumbles and dried cranberries. I then mounded some of the tuna salad on the whole wheat roll and added a generous amount of the greens on top. I served it with some plain potato chips and some sweet tea. Everyone was happy and has requested that I make this meal again. It must be the combination of the hint of sweet, savory and tangy all at the same time that got everyone hooked. I think this sandwich would be great with some oven fries or sweet potato fries. It's amazing how you can transform a simple can of tuna into something so appetizing and delicious! :)

I could do without the sweet relish, brown mustard and honey. Yuck! Husband disagrees, but said yuck to the mayo.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds delish to me! I am always looking to spice up some tuna and most times throwing an egg and onion in there is all I know to do LOL...
ReplyDeleteThx for sharing this!
Sounds good, looks good. Reminds me of Tuna Melt, one of my fave orders from McAllister's and Jason's Deli.
