Grilled Tuna Fish Sandwich

Recipe By: Alice Morrow

Ingredients

6 boiled eggs
2 (5 oz.) cans of tuna, drained or (8-10 oz.) fresh grilled tuna
1 t. black pepper
1-2 T. yellow mustard
¼ c. chopped sweet relish
1-2 diced celery stalks
¼ c. chopped red onion
Mayo or Miracle Whip (added to get the consistency you like)
1-2 slices of provolone, pepper jack, mozzarella or your favorite white cheese
1-2 thick slices of fresh tomatoes
Nice thick crusty bread

Instructions

Boil eggs. Drain. Peel.
In a bowl, take the eggs and with two sharp knives, cut up the eggs until you get a nice dice (not too large and not too mushy.)
If using canned tuna, drain really well. I find canned tuna today, has too much liquid. But if you have fresh tuna, also cut up like the eggs.
Add tuna to eggs.
Add the pepper, mustard, relish, celery and onion. Mix well.
Add Mayo or Miracle Whip a spoon at a time until you get the consistency you like. Taste for additional seasoning.
To make sandwich: Heat up a grill pan or non stick skillet. Slice bread into nice slices. Brush the exposed sides with olive oil. On one side of bread, put your cheese slices, tomato slices and a nice serving of the tuna fish. Place other slice of bread on top. Place into grill pan and cook 1-2 minutes on each side until it becomes golden brown.
Remove from pan and let sit for about 1 minute. Slice in half and serve with a nice soup or green or fruit salad.

Notes

*****If you prefer your sandwich cold, go for it. I think you will find this a little different and very delicious!!!!
