Healthy Tuna Melt Sandwich

In a bowl, flake the tuna with a fork. Add lemon juice, vinegar, olive oil, mustard, onion, parsley and dill. Mix until combined. Add a bit more oil if it looks too dry. Add green pepper, then add salt and pepper to taste. Set aside for a few minutes so flavors can incorporate.

Turn on your broiler. Place bread slices on a baking sheet. Broil the bread until golden brown. Remove from oven and turn to the untoasted side. Lightly spritz that side of the bread with cooking spray then sprinkle with Mrs. Dash or your favorite seasoning. Return bread to oven and broil for another minute. Watch so that it does not turn brown. It should be barely toasted. Remove from oven.

Keep two slices of bread on the tray and set aside the other two. Pile the tuna on top of the toast dividing it equally between the two slices, making sure to spread it to the edges. Press down gently on the tuna so that it can adhere to the bread. Top with dairy free cheese then return to oven. Broil until cheese is melted. Remove from oven and add lettuce then top with the remaining slices of bread.

Press down gently and slice diagonally so that each sandwich makes two triangles. Eat and enjoy!

NOTE: You can store leftover tuna mixture covered in a plastic container in the fridge. Then it’s ready for the next time you want to make a sandwich.
