tuna melt sandwich

I love to have sandwiches for lunch and this type of sandwich is a regular treat in lunch bag, of course there are the usual fruits such as bananas, apples, and/or oranges.

I’m sure that you will all agree on my statement on how quick and easy it is to make your own tuna melt sandwich. It only took me less than 10 minutes to complete everything.

Aside from the listed ingredients in the recipe below, you may also add minced celery. This give the tuna mixture a good crunch and it also improves the flavor.

Any brand of Swiss cheese will do. It is always best to use your favorite/trusted brand. You can melt the cheese by toasting the sandwich in the skillet, as indicated in the recipe, or by toasting the whole sandwich in an oven toaster.
