I never liked tuna melts until I tried this recipe! WOW it was phenomenal. one of the best sandwiches I've had in a long time. Will <strong>definitely</strong> be making this again, and soon!

Great recipe, but the bread did not toast or even get brown in the oven. After 10 minutes, I took it out and fried it on the stove.

I must admit that I was a bit wary of adding pickles and lemon juice (as well as pepper) into a tuna melt, but I thought I would try it once.  I did and I am very happy that I did.  It was delicious and I won't go back.

Thanks!

This is wonderful!! I cheat by using dill relish and freeze dried chopped red onions. As someone else has noted - be sure to preheat the pan in the oven if you want your bread nice and brown. Better yet - flip it halfway through. YUM!

The overall recipe was great, but the tuna was way too acidic. Between the lemon juice, pickles, and red pepper flakes, it was too much. I would definitely make it again, but with a different recipe for the tuna.

Delicious! I didn’t have celery so I used cucumber for the crunch. Muenster cheese instead of cheddar. 
The lemon juice really brightened this up! I’ll eat tuna any way but this really elevated it ❤️❤️

This is the first tuna melt I’ve eaten and it’s super delicious! Just try the recipe. I use potato rolls for my bread and it is quite delightful.

ive never had a tuna melt before but i decided to make one since it’s all foods i like. it was really good! i added a pickle spear but followed the rest of the recipe as written. will definitely make this again tomorrow.

this is the best ever tuna melt! i added a little bit more lemon juice for some more acid but this was such a great recipe!

this was good but just tasted like a warm sandwich .I could do this and get the same taste in alot less time.

This is hands down, the absolute best tuna sandwich I have ever made and eaten. Genius!

I totally recommend this recipe, wow! I found the sandwich toasts and melts much better if you only broil it and flip to after a minute or so, depending on your oven. I have a gas oven and I broiled the sandwich for 1 1/2 mins on each side. So yum!

Loved it add garlic baked in toaster oven

Easy, cheap and tasty! Highly recommended!!

The celery, pickle and onion hook this melt up with the perfect amount of crunch. Loved the addition of red pepper flakes which added a nice 
little kick. All in all this is one sexy sexy sandwich.

Delish! 😉 I made it my own a by adjusting just a tad. I did a little more tuna and a little less mayo. Didn’t use red pepper flakes. I also removed the seeds from the pickles and used 3 spears. After the 5 min baking, I broiled on each side to toast the bread a bit.

This Tuna Melt Is What We Crave When We Need Comfort Food

An old-fashioned lunch, this Classic Tuna Melt is a quick, diner-style recipe that you can put together in minutes and is so delicious!

Classic Tuna Melt

tuna (drained (2 5 oz cans))

onion

lemon juice

salt

pepper

rib celery (diced)

green onion (finely sliced)

cheddar cheese

tomato

bread

Tablespoons salted butter (softened)

After draining the tuna thoroughly, place it into a medium bowl. Use a fork to break it up really well.

Mix mayonnaise, onion, lemon juice, salt, pepper, celery and green onion with the tuna.

Heat a skillet to medium-low heat. Spread butter on one slice of bread.

Place this piece of bread, butter side down, into the skillet. Add about ½ cup of the tuna mixture and spread it to the edges of the bread.

Add slices of tomato and a slice of cheese.

Butter on one side of another piece of bread. Place this piece of bread (butter side up) on top of the cheese. (The butter goes on the outside of the sandwich so that it will toast nicely.) Then carefully flip the sandwich with a spatula to grill both sides.

Cook the sandwich in the skillet at medium-low heat until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted.

The perfectly balanced lunchtime sandwich delivering on flavour and cheesy goodness can be found in this Most Incredible Tuna Melt recipe! It’s got crunch, it’s got tartness, and it’s got gooey and melty cheese. What more can you ask for to make lunch exciting?
