A Cheesy, Creamy Tuna Melt Lightened Up

Tuna melts are usually laden with fat and calories thanks to the use of mayonnaise and butter.

My sandwich uses ingredients like onion, pickle, mustard, a really great muenster cheese, and some spicy arugula to boost flavor, without added fat and salt. Grilled, it comes out nice and crunchy on the outside, and cheesy, creamy on the inside.

Now I have a sandwich that weighs in at almost half the calories, fat and sodium. Not only that, it tastes miles fresher, and infinitely more delicious!

Serves 2

5 ounces Light Tuna Packed in Water, Drained
2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons dill pickle, finely chopped
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
½ tsp Dijon mustard
2 slices muenster cheese
4 slices whole wheat bread
1 cup arugula

1. Combine tuna, onion, pickle, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard in a bowl.
2. Top 1 slice of whole wheat bread with tuna, cheese and another slice of bread.
3. Grill on panini grill, or spray non-stick skillet with cooking spray
and grill on each side until cheese melts, and bread is toasted brown.
