HEALTHY TUNA MELTS
Quick and easy to make for lunch or dinner! My husband asked me to make him a tuna melt. I'd never eaten one (I don't like tuna except for grilled tuna steaks), let alone made one, so I tried this recipe from The Complete Cooking Light Cookbook. I've made this for him a few times now, and he says they're good! He's not big on English muffins so we normally use whole wheat toast instead.

- Spread softened butter over one side of all the pieces of bread. You'll need about two tablespoons to over the eight pieces of bread. On the other side of four of the slices of bread, add one tablespoon whipped cream cheese. On the plain side of the remaining four pieces of bread, add cheese and 1/4 of tuna mixture. Place the whipped cream cheese covered slices face down on top of the tuna.
- Heat a non-stick skillet to medium and spray with cooking oil. Working in batches (or as many sandwiches will fit on your skillet), add a sandwich to the skillet with the side that has the sharp cheddar face down. You want to give the cheddar as long as possible to melt. After about five minutes, or when the bread that's face down is golden brown, carefully flip the sandwich. Your tuna melt sandwich is done when both sides of the bread are golden brown, crispy, and cheese is melted on the inside.
