Hard Boiled Eggs Not Required

Usually, I top this with tomato slices from my neighbor’s garden. (You didn’t think I would grow my own garden too?!)  No tomato.  No problem.  I just topped it with hard boiled egg.  While I cooked the eggs, I made up the tuna salad.  It would be great with hard boiled eggs inside the mix, but I didn’t do it this time.

Tuna Melt

Prepare French Bread:

Turn oven on to broil. Slice french bread in half. Butter the slices and place on cookie sheet in oven until very lightly browned on top. Remove from oven and let sit while you mix up the tuna salad (or mix up tuna salad while it’s browning. Just don’t overcook your bread, or it will be chewy).

Prepare Tuna Salad Mix:
1/2 tsp. minced onion (from the jar is fine)
1/4 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. Miracle Whip salad dressing
1 tsp. prepared mustard
1 T. sweet pickle relish
1/8 – 1/4 tsp black pepper
12 oz. tuna, drained

In a medium bowl, mix all the ingredients, adding the tuna last. Top with american cheese and return to oven until cheese melts.

Remove from oven and top with tomato slices, hard boiled eggs, and/or dill pickle slices.
