4. Broil or Toast
Broiler Method: Place the assembled melts under the broiler for 3–5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bread are golden brown. Watch closely to avoid burning.
Stovetop Method: Heat a skillet over medium-low heat. Place the assembled melts in the skillet, cover with a lid, and cook for 3–5 minutes per side, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted.
5. Serve and Enjoy
Remove from the oven or skillet and let cool slightly.
Serve warm with pickles, chips, or a simple side salad for a complete meal.
Serving Suggestions
Pair with a bowl of tomato soup for a comforting, nostalgic combo.
Add a sprinkle of Everything Bagel seasoning or red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
Serve open-faced for a lighter option or top with an extra slice of bread for a sandwich-style melt.
Pro Tips for Success
Use Quality Tuna: Opt for solid white albacore tuna packed in water or olive oil for better texture and flavor.
Add Freshness: Stir in fresh herbs like dill, parsley, or chives for a bright, herby twist.
Go Low-Carb: Swap the bread for sliced bell peppers, portobello mushrooms, or lettuce wraps for a keto-friendly version.
Make Ahead: Prepare the tuna salad in advance and store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Assemble and melt just before serving.
